My daddy built the house looking out across the fields
Peeking through the hardwoods and the pines
Where we'd play until the sun went down and never got our fill
And love was all we needed to get by
And the world seemed so small up among those blue ridge mountains
And I knew every hilltop by its name
And I knew every holler, every creek and every person
Now I know it will never be the same
How I long to see the moon rising over high bright mountain
Where my granddaddy's land met the Carolina sky
And I'd wake up in the morning to my mother's voice a'callin'
But they've all gone before me to their home up in the sky
And I moved off to the city with a boy that I loved
Trying just to make it on our own
But when I looked outside at night I couldn't help but miss the sight
Of that moonlight on my family's mountain home
How I long to see the moon rising over high bright mountain
Where my granddaddy's land met the Carolina sky
And I'd wake up in the morning to my mother's voice a'callin'
But they've all gone before me to their home up in the sky
How I long to see the moon rising over high bright mountain
Where my granddaddy's land met the Carolina sky
And I'd wake up in the morning to my mother's voice a'callin'
But they've all gone before me to their home up in the sky
