High on a Hilltop Lyrics
High on a hilltop, overlooking a city,
I watched the bright lights as they gleam.
For somewhere you're dancing in some dingy bar room,
And the lure of the gay life takes the place of our dream.
High on a hilltop my heart cries: "Oh Lord,
Forgive her she knows not the way,
And give me the power to believe, and some day,
High on a hilltop, together we'll pray."
I can vision a rounder with a line so smooth,
With a promise of riches for you.
But you see not the danger, for you're silly with booze,
And from high on a hilltop I see the devil in you.
High on a hilltop my heart cries: "Oh Lord,
Forgive her she knows not the way,
And give me the power to believe, and some day,
High on a hilltop, together we'll pray..."
I watched the bright lights as they gleam.
For somewhere you're dancing in some dingy bar room,
And the lure of the gay life takes the place of our dream.
Forgive her she knows not the way,
And give me the power to believe, and some day,
High on a hilltop, together we'll pray."
With a promise of riches for you.
But you see not the danger, for you're silly with booze,
And from high on a hilltop I see the devil in you.
Forgive her she knows not the way,
And give me the power to believe, and some day,
High on a hilltop, together we'll pray..."
