I Love to Go Hiking In the Mountains

Mountain Song
by: Rob Paquin

Can you hear it like I do ?
That ever persistent call.
The one that invites you constantly
To Mother Nature's Playground Ball.

A world wide celebration
Celebrated every day
On every corner of the earth
In every sort of way

I choose to celebrate the world
And all it's natural gifts
By climbing, hiking, and camping
Among the mountains and their cliffs

Winter is my playground
It's where I find my peace
I travel through the alpine zone
To stand among the peaks.

You might think that once I've fed it
Standing there, amongst the clouds
My hunger would be satisfied
Yet still I remain under it's shrouds

I come back to the life I lead
With that call still in my ear
I cannot wait until the next time
When I get to pack my gear
