about

original song by Sibylle Baier

lyrics

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
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
that i lost something in the hills
i lost something in the hills
oh, i lost something in the hills
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
