Paragraph Lyric
On the side of a hill, in a land called Somewhere
A little boy lies asleep in the earth
While down in the valley a cruel war rages
And people forget what a child's life is worth
On the side of a hill, a little cloud weeps
And waters the grave with its silent tears
While a soldier cleans and polishes a gun
That ended a life at the age of seven years
And the war rages on in the land called Somewhere
And generals order their men to kill
And to fight for a cause they've long ago forgotten
While a little cloud weeps on the side of a hill
On the side of a hill, in a land called Somewhere   A little boy lies asleep in the earth   While down in the valley a cruel war rages   And people forget what a child's life is worth   On the side of a hill, a little cloud weeps   And waters the grave with its silent tears   While a soldier cleans and polishes a gun   That ended a life at the age of seven years   And the war rages on in the land called Somewhere   And generals order their men to kill   And to fight for a cause they've long ago forgotten   While a little cloud weeps on the side of a hill
