Cumberland gap, Cumberland gap. Fifteen miles on the Cumberland gap. Cumberland gap, Cumberland gap. Fifteen miles on the Cumberland gap. . Cumberland gap ain't nowhere.
When you walk in the garden. In the garden of Eden. With a beautiful woman. And you know how you care. And the voice in the garden. In the Garden of Eden.
Mother, mother. There's too many of you crying. Brother, brother, brother. There's far too many of you dying. You know we've got to find a way. To bring some lovin' here today, yea.
My heart is aching for someone. And you are that someone. You know the truth of my story. You must believe what you see. . I, too, may someday love someone.
Till the moon deserts the sky. Till all the seas run dry. Till then I'll worship you. . Till the tropic sun grows cold. Till this young world grows old.
You came, I was alone. I should have known you were temptation. You smiled, luring me on. My heart was gone, you were temptation. It would be thrilling.
Strangers in the night,. Exchanging glances. Wandering the night,. What were the chances. We'd be sharing love. Before the night was through. . Something in your eyes.
There's just one place for me, near you. It's like heaven to be near you. . Times when we're apart. And I can't face my heart. Say you'll never stay. More than just two lips away.
