Lyrics

?ONLY MOUNTAINS MADE HER CRY?
MARK ELLIOTT/MICHELLE MCAFEE/RICK CRAWFORD


SHE COULDN?T HELP BUT CRY THE DAY SHE LEFT MONTANA
SHE FOLLOWED HER HEART AND THAT BOY TO ALABAMA
SHE GAVE HIM EVERYTHING FOR THE PROMISE OF A DIAMOND RING
AND NOW SHE?S HEADING HOME WITH NOTHING IN HER HANDS


REPEAT CHORUS
SHE CAN SEE THE ROCKIES RISING AS THE SUN SETS DOWN
SHE NEEDS TO TASTE THE WATER SMELL THE PINES
PUT HER FEET ON SOLID GROUND
HE BROKE HER HEART AND BROUGHT TEARS TO HER EYES
AND SHE THOUGHT ONLY MOUNTAINS MADE HER CRY

SHE COUNTED EVERY MILE FROM MONTGOMERY TO MISSOULA
TALKING TO HERSELF, SAYIN? ?HOW?D YOU LET LOVE FOOL YA??
SHE?S GONNA? TAKE HIS MEMORY
AND THROUGH IT IN A MOUNTAIN STREAM
AND WATCH IT MELT AWAY LIKE SNOW IN EARLY SPRING

REPEAT CHORUS
