Time passes slowly up here in the mountains

We sit beside bridges and walk beside fountains

Catch the wild fishes that float through the stream

Time passes slow when you're lost in a dream

Once I had a sweetheart, she was fine and good-lookin'

Staring out the window to the stars high above

Time passes slowly when you're searchin' for love
