Intro: Oh, those hills were tall and winding And the roads they did divide When we reached the top, we stopped To see over the side Oh, the fickle sea I've always loved Unto this very day I do recall that city far below Just like a glistening bay verse 1 And from the bay, they grew the sky And every universe was there Reflecting all the surface of the earth Upon the road, between my toes I felt blue grassy threads And a chill wind caught my heart And raised the hair upon my head verse 2 I thought of home the whole night long And where the time had gone I sat there on a high cliff top Upon the warming land The perfumed cedars caught the wind Blown in from open sea I hid a precious stone I held Inside a weathered tree Oh, those hills were tall and winding And the roads they did divide When we reached the top, we stopped To see over the side Oh, the fickle sea I've always loved Unto this very day I do recall that city far below Just like a glistening bay Instrumental verse 3 A handful of small flowers Which were nestling in the grass I tossed them to the sky And watched them as they danced Oh, the fickle see I've always loved Unto this very day I see those flowers go floating down Towards the glistening bay Oh, those hills were tall and winding And the roads they did divide When we reached the top, we stopped To see over the side Oh, the fickle sea I've always loved Unto this very day I do recall that city I do recall that city far below Just like a glistening bay Just like a glistening bay Outro
