high on a hilltop overlooking the city i can see the bright lights as they gleam and somewhere you re dancing in some dingy barroom and the lure of the gayness takes the place of our dream high on a hilltop my heart cries oh lord forgive her she knows not the way and give me the power to believe and someday high on a hilltop together we ll pray i canvision around her with her lying so smooth with a promise of riches for you but you see not the danger cause you re silly with booze and from high on a hilltop i see the devil in you high on a hilltop my heart cries oh lord forgive her she knows not the way and give me the power to believe and someday high on a hilltop together we ll pray
