I Lost Something In The Hills

Lyrics

[Verse 1] 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 [Chorus] I lost something in the hills I lost something in the hills [Verse 2] I grew up in declivities Others grow up in cities Where first love and soul takes rise There were 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 jasmine, I shall die In the elder tree 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 [Chorus] That I lost something in the hills I lost something in the hills Oh, I lost something in the hills [Verse 3] 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 [Chorus] Well I lost something in the hills I lost something in the hills Oh, I lost something in the hills
