On Peak Hill

[Verse 1] The rain fell hard on the roofs that day You telephoned from far away I see the ocean from my room All I could say was, "Are you coming home soon?" [Verse 2] The static whispered in my ear But in a moment your voice was clear "I need some time," you said to me That's when I knew you were going to make me lonely [Chorus] You were gonna make me wish for the time right before I was born When every living breath was another new dawn Or like the time I was 5 at the top of Peak Hill And the wind almost took me away You're gonna make me wish for a time right before I was born When every living breath was another new dawn Or like the time I was 5 at the top of Peak Hill And the wind almost took me away [Verse 3] I walk a while before I sleep Count the secrets that I keep A hope for more I know for sure I'll fall apart before I weep I'll disconnect the telephone 'Cause I can choose to be alone I'll get more done I'll have some fun Pretend you're not the only one Da da da da da da da Yeah [Chorus] And I'm never gonna wish for a time right before I was born When every living breath was another new dawn Or like the time I was 5 at the top of Peak Hill And the wind almost took me away You're gonna make me wish for a time right before I was born When every living breath was another new dawn Or like the time I was 5 at the top of Peak Hill And the wind almost took me away Hey-yeah The wind almost took me away Da da da da da da da da Da da da da da Da da da da da Da da da da Da da da da Da da da da
