He's weeping gently on a hill
Come fetch him home for dinner
Come fetch him home for dinner
Come fetch him home for dinner time
What did he see?
Beyond the hill, oh I know
Was it the sight of the rolling clouds and rolling plains
The grey rainy skies
That made him cry
And he thought of dreams and pains
Just a little boy
What did he see?
Was it his family waiting back at home
And there was just a bittersweetness he couldn’t explain
The grey rainy skies
That made him cry
And he thought of dreams and pains
Just a little boy
