Deacon Hill Lyrics

Sitting alone, here atop Deacon Hill

Watching shapes in the clouds slowly fade

Like the chance for a life built around you

They're illusions melting away

How I wish I could soar like the elegant kite

To reach you, I'd glide on the breeze

Sitting alone, atop Deacon Hill

Left to contemplate sweet memories

We off't act with wisdom, but sometimes in haste

I've not had my share of the two

Wisdom deserted that morning in Spring

When in haste I decided we're through

How I wish I could soar like the elegant kite

To reach you, I'd glide on the breeze

Sitting alone, atop Deacon Hill

Left to contemplate sweet memories

I bid you goodbye as the chains fall away

My heart floats to the sky

The bed that we make is the one where we lie

But maybe it isn't for keeps

In a bed made of sorrow, remorse and regret I want no longer to sleep

So then up Deacon Hill, to break free of the mist

The path bends, a corner to turn

The breeze whispers softly, be strong, find your wings

No longer to creep, nor to yearn

How I wish I could soar like the elegant kite

Freewheeling along with the breeze

Sitting alone, atop Deacon Hill I can let go those sweet memories

Now I feel that I can soar like the elegant kite

Learned lessons, much wiser I'll be

Standing alone, atop Deacon Hill

With myself I think I can find peace

Standing alone, atop Deacon Hill

With myself I think I can find peace
