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 Ive not seen the roaring fields in so long
I know Ive grown, but I cant wait to go home
Im on my way
Driving at 90 down those country lanes
Singing to Tiny Dancer
And I miss the way you make me feel, and its 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 dont reckon that I did it right, but
I was younger then, take me back to when
We found weekend jobs, when we got paid
Wed buy cheap spirits and drink them straight
Me and my friends have not thrown up in so long
Oh, how weve grown, but I cant wait to go home
Im on my way
Driving at 90 down those country lanes
Singing to Tiny Dancer
And I miss the way you make me feel, and its real
When we watched the sunset over the castle on the hill
Over the castle on the hill
Over the castle on the hill
♪
One friend left to sell clothes
One works down by the coast
One had two kids, but lives alone
Ones brother overdosed
Ones already on his second wife
Ones just barely getting by, but
These people raised me
And I cant wait to go home
And Im 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 its real
When we watched the sunset over the castle on the hill
Over the castle on the hill
Over the castle on the hill
