On that hill, the birds were singing
Fairies danced in secret light
The trickster steals the booze so silent
Folks get all excited and the stars ignite
Banjos strumming in the twilight glow
Old Joe's fiddle hits the cry
Granny's tales of days long buried
Whispers to the moon, reaching for the sky
Hilltop whispers
Secrets burning
Voices carry through the night
Laughs and cries
The world's a-turning
Where the shadows meet the light
Midnight brews and hidden flasks
Carol's waltz with feet so bare
Ghosts of yore and dreams so fleeting
Caught between the realms of here and there
Banjos strumming in the twilight glow
Old Joe's fiddle hits the cry
Granny's tales of days long buried
Whispers to the moon, reaching for the sky
(
Smoke rings dance from pipes well-loved
Songs of sorrow and of cheer
In the mist the memories hover
Eternal echoes ever near
)
Hilltop whispers
Secrets burning
Voices carry through the night
Laughs and cries
The world's a-turning
Where the shadows meet the light
