On top of the hill I hear echoes in the starlight Sweet voices from my past Return in the night The darkness is so vast Slender moon like a smile A thin teardrop of glass I watch it awhile My heart has flown away With the wind so mild It carries me, carries me to play Just like a child For this one hour For this one hour On top of the hill For this one hour I'm with you again In dreams I thought beyond recall Of my family and my friends Gone beyond the wall I'd forgotten, forgotten how to cry My heart has been dry Now, now, now at long last It opens like a flower For this one hour For this one hour On top of the hill On top of the hill For this one hour For this one hour For this one hour For this one hour For this one hour On top of the hill On top of the hill On top, way up on the hill On top of the hill Way up on the hill On top of the hill On top of the hill For this one hour
