The Side of a Hill



On the side of a hill
In a land called Somewhere
A little boy lies a sleep
In the earth
While down in the valley
A cruel war rages
And people forget what a
Child's life is worth

On the side of a hill
A little cloud weeps
And waters a grave
With its silent tears
While a soldier cleans
And polishes a gun
That ended a life
At the age of seven years

And the war rages on
In a land called Somewhere
And generals order
Their men to kill
And to fight for a cause
They've long ago forgotten
While a little cloud weeps
On the side of a hill
