Castle On The Hill

When I was six years old, I broke my leg

I was running from my brother and his friends

Tasted the sweet perfume of the mountain grass, I rolled down

I was younger then

Take me back to when I

Found my heart and broke it here

Made friends and lost them through the years

And I've not seen the roaring fields in so long, I know, I've grown

But I can't wait to go home

I'm on my way

Driving at ninety down those country lanes

Singing to tiny dancer

And I miss the way you make me feel, and it's real

When we watched the sunset over the castle on the hill

Fifteen years old and smoking hand rolled cigarettes

Running from the law through the backfields and getting drunk with my friends

Had my first kiss on a friday night, I don't reckon I did it right

But I was younger then

Take me back to when

We found weekend jobs, when we got paid

And buy cheap spirits and drink them straight

Me and my friends have not thrown up in so long, oh, how we've grown

I can't wait to go home

I'm on my way

Driving at ninety down those country lanes

Singing to tiny dancer

And I miss the way you make me feel, it's real

When we watched the sunset over the castle on the hill

Over the castle on the hill

Over the castle on the hill
