Somewhere Up In The Mountains (Original: MARQUIS DE SADE 1981)
I wish I had a place of my own Somewhere to go at weekends High up in the mountains A quiet place to be There I could listen to records And not be disturbed at all I could swim for miles in the great lake And eat the fruit from the trees
Chorus: Somewhere up in the mountains I'd like to have a retreat Somewhere up in the mountains Where the air is fresh and sweet
I would climb the highest mountain And watch the clouds go by Then wait there right until nightfall And catch the shooting stars Then I would put them in bottles And keep them for souvenirs To remind me of my place in the mountains Where I'd spent so many years
Chorus: Somewhere up in the mountains I'd like to have a retreat Somewhere up in the mountains Where the air is fresh and sweet
