There was a hill by the riverside Once atop, you could see the whole world, wide An image that filled most with pride Once the result was felt on the inside The effect on folk was hard to hide A bounce in their step, a change in stride Feelings of cynicism all had died These days the hill is gone alongside All the joy and hope it could provide. And though the stubborn have tried Life is hard without a guide. There is not much to with your time, but bide For the return of the hill by the riverside

Hill by the Riverside
There was a hill by the riverside Once atop, you could see the whole world, wide An image that filled most with pride Once the result was felt on the inside The effect on folk was hard to hide A bounce in their step, a change in stride Feelings of cynicism all had died These days the hill is gone alongside All the joy and hope it could provide. And though the stubborn have tried Life is hard without a guide. There is not much to with your time, but bide For the return of the hill by the riverside
