Captain's Hill

The hill we climbed, when we were young, aside a sea in Ireland
It seemed so tall to children, you pulled me up to roll me down
A drive to Fore, an Abby stone, a jump, a photograph all our own
Now we hold to what we lost, a memory like fire in our minds
It’s true, it’s true, we learned to live through you
It’s true, it’s true, we learned to live through you
Been known to use some hope and truth to get the days to turn around
And if it’s lost, it’s time to move
I fear we’re stretched too thin now
It’s true, it’s true, we learned to live through you
It’s true, it’s true, we learned to live through you
And if I’d go on today, I’d work for simple life
And I’d find a way to walk amongst all the tall pines
And now I’m gonna lead a life alone, I’ll walk along the edge
And I’m gonna turn my eyes to you, it’s true
