A mournful rememberance of a loved one lost.

lyrics

GREEN ARE THE HILS
Lyrics: Philip Obermarck
Music: Heather Alexander


Green are the hills of the land I call home
far across the sea-
And green are the eyes of my one true love
who was cruelly torn from me-

Red is the sand of the land I now roam
in the heat of the day-
And red was the blood that was spilled from her wounds
as her spirit slipped away-

Pale is the moon in the heavens above
where she waits for me-
And pale was her skin as she breathed her last
Lying there ‘neath the old rowan tree-

Black is the night and the hearts of the beasts
who would pose as men-
And black is the space she has left in my heart
that will never fill again-
