Story Behind The Song
I went to Denver to visit a friend, many years ago. We sat in a little cabin where she lived simply, and I missed the one I most loved. I wrote this song.
Song Description
My lifetime work in psychology, and my love for existential psychology and deep river thinking (I've called it) has long been a part of my life and my music. Our lives are small in contrast with the mountains; and yet Eternal in another way. Peace comes in this paradox.

Lyrics
Sittin' in this cabin, love that's someplace I have never been
lookin' at the Chiefshead, love, that's something I have never seen
you know the mountain was here when you and I weren't even whispers of love in our mother's minds; and the mountain's gonna be here when our mothers, and you and I are far behind. Even if I thought so, I've tried to never tell you you were wrong; I'm just sittin' in this cabin, playin' easy on this Rocky Mtn Song. Sittin' in this cabin where the winter always holds the hand of spring; thinking about timelessness, the kinds of things the changing season brings. You know the mountain was here when you and I were seeds in the womb of Destiny; and the mountain's gonna be here when you and I have changed our form to fit Eternity. even if I wanted to, I can't tell you love where you belong; I wish you were - sittin' in this cabin listenin' easy to my Rocky Mountain Song.
