You Were Gone lyrics

[Verse 1]
There's a hill I cannot get to
No matter how I try
Would you tell me the fastest way to you
And I'll fly

[Verse 2]
On that hill you built a castle
Made of leaves and sticks and stones
You had no dreams of grandeur
Just a place to call your own

[Verse 3]
There you stood and saw the glory
On the land o'er which you reigned
There you stood and the glory and the pain, oh the pain
There you stood and saw the glory and the pain

[Verse 4]
There's a hill across the ocean
Down a road that's lined with green
It was there I first saw you
When I was eighteen

[Verse 5]
When you spoke I couldn't hear you
I held the can up to my ear
All your words had gotten lost among
The tattered twine and tears
