Verso Every time i shed tears In the last past years When i pass through the hills Oh, what images return Oh i yearn For the roots of the woods That origin of all my strong and strange moods I lost something in the hills I lost something in the hills Verso I grew up in declivities Others grow up in cities Where first love and soul takes rise There where times in my life When i felt mad and deprived And only the slopes gave me hope When i pass through the leg high grass i shall die Under the jasmin i shall die Under the elder tree And i need not try to prepare for a new coming day Where is it that fills the deepness i feel You will say i'm not robin the hood But how could i hide from top to foot That i lost something in the hills I lost something in the hills Oh i lost something in the hills Verso Now i lean on my window sill And i cry, though it's silly And i'm dreaming of off and away Oh i know further west these hills exist Marked by apple trees marked by a straight brook That leads me wherever i want it to Well i lost something in the hills I lost something in the hills Oh, i lost something in the hills
