Fog On The Mountain

Sirens blaring in the middle of the night.
Dogs are howling it just doesn't feel right.
I can feel an eerie chill in the mountain air,
Sitting on the back porch rocking in my chair.

My life changed instantly, when I heard the phone ring.
I feared to pick it up, for the news that it may bring.
Missing you tomorrow more than the day before.
Following the path life takes and giving a little more.

There was fog on the mountain you could cut it with a knife.
You've been on the road so long, I prayed you'd be alright.
Fog on the mountain, rain pouring down.
I could see the lightning strike for miles around.

Life will never be the same wihtout you by my side.
The son we share together fills my heart with pride.
Each time he speaks it reminds me of you.
Always knowing what to say and especially what to do.

The fog on the mountain now is gone,
But in my memory you live forever on.
I know that soon I will hold your hand,
As we walk together upon the Golden Strand.

There was fog on the mountain you could cut it with a knife.
You've been on the road so long, I prayed you'd be alright.
Fog on the mountain, rain pouring down.
I could see the lightning strike for miles around.
