Lyrics
Girl from the Hills
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Standing alone, in a tearful refrain,
The girl from the hills sighs in vain,
People scutter by as she unbuttons one button from her pretty city dress
Watching the sun lend the sky to the moon,
And it's times like these, she yearns to be, back where the air doesn't bleed,
And the birds whisper words of tranquility,
She yearns to be...
Yearns to be
She looks to the sky in a daze of deep dismay,
And she questions all her troubles and her strifes of life,
Oh...for wealth is from the heart, not a car, a house or a plastic credit card
For every tear you lose a diamond from your crown
And it's times like these, she yearns to be,
Back under that old apple tree,
Where she'd dance and she'd sing to this melody,
She'd sing to me, she'd sing to me
And it's times like these when the world's so cruel that she'd hear this voice inside her call...
