This song is one of several in my long-term project called "Girl From Pewter Lane". Diana Venzi (Consort - Sakota) and Stan Loh (Emperor Xian-feng) were very kind to sing this for me.
Stan loves music, is published (EMI/Capitol), and has experience performing on radio and TV when it was live in the good old days. These days he's just writing
Songwriter of pop, country, inspirational songs. I like to write. I travel a lot to Asia...so my music may have an Asian influence.

Mountains Of Love
Composed by Stan Loh, May l2, 2002
(Soft Rock)
(Scene: Sakota and Xian-feng in their bedchamber after the third consecutive day Xian-feng spends with Yehonala. Sakota wants his love, and Xian-feng is guilty about sleeping with Yehonala.)
SAKOTA
You are the love, I've been dreaming of,
If I'm yours, make my stars shine,
Come fly with me, over the seas,
Just because our hearts combine.
I give you mountains of love, there's more in reserve,
Take me to the skies,
When I am with you each night, my heart will light,
You're the King of my life, just because, you are fine.
XIAN-FENG
You are my love, you're my own true love,
You're my Queen, finest I've seen.
I?m here with you, my vow renewed,
You make me fly like a dove.
We'll make our future tonight, like lovers in flight,
Together we'll climb,
The highest peaks of our world, with pleasures unfurled,
Great Queen of the skies, I'm so glad you are mine.
SAKOTA
I know my love, I thank the Gods above,
They heard my prayer, impending heir,
Forget the time, just make our love chime,
Our sun will shine when our stars combine.
Bring on the mountains of love the kinds we dream of,
My king of the skies,
When both our spirits feel fine, our hearts will find,
Next King of the Skies, Just because, love's divine.
BOTH
Let's love tonight,
Tonight is the night,
So that forever our love will last.
We'll love tonight,
Tonight is the night,
So that forever our love will last.
