There's a hill I cannot get to no matter how I try Would you tell me the fastest way to you and I'll fly
On that hill you built a castle Made of leaves and sticks and stones You had no dreams of grandeur Just a place to call your own
There you stood and saw the glory On the land which you made
There you stood and saw the glory And the pain, oh the pain There you stood and saw the glory and the pain
There's a hill across the ocean Down a road that's lined with green It was there I first saw you when I was eighteen
When you spoke I couldn't hear you I held the can up to my ear All your words had gotten lost among the tattered twine and tears
All of those days that we went swimming I never could swim upstream like you, All of those nights that we went diving I never could dive as deep as you, How did I know that I was weary I fell asleep right next you
All of that time my heart was heavy
I tried to climb your mountain I pushed the rock uphill Oh, I tried to climb your mountain But I slipped against my will
So I found myself a backway I saddled up that road Oh, I found myself a backway and I made it to your home
But you were gone before I got there, Gone back from where you came,
You were gone before I called your pretty name, pretty name You were gone before I called your pretty name Before you saw the glory and the painTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
