St. Helens Alpenglow
[Verse 1]
I can feel the alpine mist
The taste of your chapstick
Still owns these lonely lips
And we are lying in the leaves
Tween embers in the breeze
Stars that I can't reach
You're all I'll ever need
[Chorus]
Don't wake me up
Let me dream of that sunrise painting the mountainside gold
And I'll stay
Right here in this Heaven 'cause here you're not letting me go
And you might be over me, you might be gonе
But all that I need you to know
Is to me you will always be Saint Helеns alpenglow
[Verse 2]
You, you're a thousand miles away
Both knew we couldn't stay
And maybe that's okay
'Cause you found love to stand beside
But I still wonder if at night
In the cold moonlight
You find me there sometimes
[Chorus]
Don't wake me up
Let me dream of that sunrise painting the mountainside gold
And I'll stay
Right here in this Heaven 'cause here you're not letting me go
And you might be over me, you might be gone
But all that I need you to know
Is to me you will always be Saint Helens alpenglow
[Bridge]
It ain't just a dream, it's a piece of my soul
When waters start rising that's still where I go
It's warm on the top when the light hits my skin
When I close my eyes you're here with me again
[Chorus]
Don't wake me up
Let me dream of that sunrise painting the mountainside gold
And I'll stay
Right here in this Heaven 'cause here you're not letting me go
And you might be over me, you might be gone
But all that I need you to know
Is to me you will always be Saint Helens alpenglow
Yeah, to me you will always be Saint Helens alpenglow
