There's a girl on a mountain top Watching the world below She's got a wish in her heart And a fire that won't slow An old man by her side With tales of days gone by He whispers words of wisdom As the girl reaches for the sky She's searching for her happiness But fate can be unkind Sometimes the road to joy Is lined with trouble you'll find She climbs a little higher With every step she takes But the higher she goes The more her heart aches But she won't give up the fight She'll reach the top one day And when she does, the view will be worth it The price she had to pay She's searching for her happiness But fate can be unkind Sometimes the road to joy Is lined with trouble you'll find And though the journey's hard She'll keep on climbing high For in the end, the girl on the mountain Will touch the sky
