Castle On The Hill Lyrics
[Verse 1]
When I was six years old, I broke my leg
I was running from my brother and his friends
Tasted sweet perfume of the mountain grass I rolled down
I was younger then, take me back to when I
[Pre-Chorus]
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
[Chorus]
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, it's real
We watched the sunset over thе castle on the hill
[Verse 2]
Fifteen years old and smoking hand-rollеd 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
When I was six years old, I broke my leg
I was running from my brother and his friends
Tasted sweet perfume of the mountain grass I rolled down
I was younger then, take me back to when I
[Pre-Chorus]
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
[Chorus]
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, it's real
We watched the sunset over thе castle on the hill
[Verse 2]
Fifteen years old and smoking hand-rollеd 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
[Pre-Chorus]
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
[Chorus]
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, it's real
We watched the sunset over the castle on the hill
[Post-Chorus]
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Over the castle on the hill
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Over the castle on the hill
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
[Chorus]
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, it's real
We watched the sunset over the castle on the hill
[Post-Chorus]
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Over the castle on the hill
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Over the castle on the hill
