Lyrics

[Verse 1]
We traded city streets for a winding road
Lighter shoulders now that we've shed the load
Sundays in the kitchen, the laughter loud
Standing back and looking at the family crowd
The grandbabies running with muddy shoes
Nothing in the world that could give us the blues
[Chorus]
And the mountain top highs keep me grounded
With the love of my life right by my side
Every prayer answered, every fear unbounded
Yeah, we're taking the long scenic ride
From the old football stadium roaring on fall Saturdays
To the baseball field under golden rays
Yeah, the mountain top highs keep me grounded
[Verse 2]
Catching up with old friends at the class reunion
Talking 'bout the old days in sweet communion
From coast to coast and new places to see
Every new experience you share with me
Holidays together by the fireplace glow
Just watching the light catch the falling snow
[Chorus]
And the mountain top highs keep me grounded
With the love of my life right by my side
Every prayer answered, every fear unbounded
Yeah, we're taking the long scenic ride
From the old football stadium roaring on fall Saturdays
From the old football stadium roaring on fall Saturdays
To the baseball field under golden rays
Yeah, the mountain top highs keep me grounded
[Bridge]
It’s the simple things that balance the scales
When the wind fills our sails
An answered prayer in the quiet night
Holding your hand till the morning light
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
And the mountain top highs keep me grounded
With the love of my life right by my side
Every prayer answered, every fear unbounded
Yeah, we're taking the long scenic ride
From the old football stadium roaring on fall Saturdays
To the baseball field under golden rays
Yeah, the mountain top highs keep me grounded
[Outro]
Keep me grounded
Yeah, right by my side
Mountain top highs
The long scenic ride
[Fade Out]
