The Matter of China - Castle on the Hill Lyrics
Artist: The Matter of China
Album: Castle on the Hill
When I was six years old, I broke my leg
I was running from my brother and his friends
And tasted the sweet perfume of the mountain grass I rolled down
I was younger then, take me back to when I found my heart and broke it here
Made friends and lost them through the years
And I`ve not seen the roaring fields in so long
I know I`ve grown, but I can`t wait to go home
I`m on my way
Driving at 90 down those country lanes
Singing to Tiny Dancer
And I miss the way you make me feel, and it`s real
When we watched the sunset over the castle on the hill
Fifteen years old and smoking hand-rolled cigarettes
Running from the law through the backfields and
Getting drunk with my friends
Had my first kiss on a Friday night
I don`t reckon that I did it right, but
I was younger then, take me back to when
We found weekend jobs, when we got paid
We`d buy cheap spirits and drink them straight
Me and my friends have not thrown up in so long
Oh, how we`ve grown, but I can`t wait to go home
I`m on my way
Driving at 90 down those country lanes
Singing to Tiny Dancer
And I miss the way you make me feel, and it`s real
When we watched the sunset over the castle on the hill
Over the castle on the hill -(2)
One friend left to sell clothes
One works down by the coast
One had two kids, but lives alone
One`s brother overdosed
One`s already on his second wife
One`s just barely getting by, but
These people raised me
And I can`t wait to go home
And I`m on my way
I still remember these old country lanes
When we did not know the answers
And I miss the way you make me feel, and it`s real
When we watched the sunset over the castle on the hill
Over the castle on the hill -(2)
