A Child in These Hills lyrics

I am a child in these hills

I am away, I am alone

I am a child in these hills

I'm looking for water

And looking for life

Who will show me the river

And ask me my name?

Is there nobody here to do that?

Well, I have come to these hills

I will come to the river

As I choose to be gone

From the house of my father

I am a child in these hills

I am a child

Chased from the gates of the city

Where no one had touched me

I am away, I am alone

I am a child in these hills

I'm looking for water

And looking for life

Who will show me the river

And ask me my name?

Is there nobody here to do that?

Well, I have come to these hills

I will come to the river

As I choose to be gone

From the house of my father

I am a child in these hills

I am a child

I am a child

I am a child
