Her eyes were emerald green
But so were the leaves
And so were the trees in late September
And the Auburn of her hair
It was just like the reds
Like leaves on the ground in a cold November
October has a full moon in the sky
When you're living on mountain time
In a cabin by the stream
They were burning wood for heat
But he kept her warm for a Catskill winter
But when April turned to may
She took her love away
Any joy that he had, it went with her
Cause her love was like the sun in mid-July
When you're living on mountain time
