Tonight down here in the valley
I am lonesome and oh how I feel
As I sit here alone in my cabin
I can see your mansion on the hill ...
Do you recall when we parted?
The story to me you revealed -
You said you could love without love, dear
In your loveless mansion on the hill
So I have waited all through the years, love
To give you a heart, true and real
'Cause I know you're living in sorrow
In your loveless mansion on the hill
The light shines bright from your window
The trees stand so silent and still
Yes, I know you're alone with your pride, dear
In your loveless mansion on the hill
Tonight down here in the valley
I am lonesome and oh how I feel
As I sit here alone in my cabin
I can see your mansion on the hill ...
I am lonesome and oh how I feel
As I sit here alone in my cabin
I can see your mansion on the hill ...
Do you recall when we parted?
The story to me you revealed -
You said you could love without love, dear
In your loveless mansion on the hill
So I have waited all through the years, love
To give you a heart, true and real
'Cause I know you're living in sorrow
In your loveless mansion on the hill
The light shines bright from your window
The trees stand so silent and still
Yes, I know you're alone with your pride, dear
In your loveless mansion on the hill
Tonight down here in the valley
I am lonesome and oh how I feel
As I sit here alone in my cabin
I can see your mansion on the hill ...
