When I stood on the top of a high high mountain And watched the sun rise in the dawn I walked by aside a cold cold river and heard the nightingale song I once saw the king of a mighty nation the princess and I had a conversation But the great big thrill of my whole life was falling in love with you I salied many times in a deep deep ocean watched waters roll on many sands Spent a night just a looking at a high high heaven and marvel that God's mighty hand I tremble like a baby when I see a snowfall Or standing in the forrest where the trees're so tall But the great big thrill of my whole life was falling in love with you Through the small port window of a big main whiner I watched the cities rush by And the gay shining wings of a great steel eagle were just aburn in the sky Well I walked by myself in the low low valley that every man could do But the great big thrill of my whole life was falling in love with you Well I walked by myself in the low low valley that every man could do But the great big thrill of my whole life was falling in love with you
