The Hill (Father's Song) Lyrics

Why did you leave me, what did I do

Could I have I stopped you if I'd wanted to

What would be different, how would I know

How could I stop you if you wanted to go

What did they call me, what do I care

Why bother with them, it's not their affair

But I'll stay strong, I'll keep on searching

Until you're home with me again

When you were a boy, we'd climb that hill

And in my dreams, I climb it still

Though you're gone, I'm still here for you

I love you my son, and I always will

They said it's no loss, that you're dead to me

Cursed to carry the mark of Cain

And though my pain is there to see

You know that I love you and that won't change

When you were a boy, we'd climb that hill

And how I wish we'd climb it still

And though you're gone and so far away

I love you my son and I always will

Oh, what joy when you come home

Raised up to your rightful place

But until then, I'll just keep watching

A' top of our hill, that sacred space
