The Side Of A Hill Lyrics

The Side Of A Hill lyrics

On the side of a hill, in a land called Somewhere

A little boy lies asleep
in the earth

While down in the valley a cruel war rages

And people
forget what a child's life is worth

On the side of a hill, a little cloud
weeps

And waters the grave with its silent tears

While a soldier
cleans and polishes a gun

That ended a life at the age of seven years

And the war rages on in the land called Somewhere

And generals order
their men to kill

And to fight for a cause they've long ago forgotten

While a little cloud weeps on the side of a hill
