Lyrics

[Verse 1] 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 [Verse 2] 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 [Verse 3] And the war rages on in a land called "Somewhere" And generals order their men to kill And to fight for a cause they've long ago forgotten While the little cloud weeps on the side of a hill
