The scenery is changing
And I haven’t moved a step
I sat down at dusk
Where I sat is where I slept
The moon set at one o’clock
The sky was star-filled
For another from the lost village
Back in the hills
With the breeze for a blanket
Slickrock for my bed
Young smiles from young women
Starlight in my head
There’s no settling down
There’s no keeping still
When you've been dreamin’ of the lost village
Back in the hills
I’ll cover ground at dawn and dusk
And sleep through the midday heat
With every generation that came before us
I will know what it’s like to use my feet
I will know what it’s like to use my feet
Tomorrow I’ll move onward
Call it progress I guess
Onward and forward
To a bigger, greater mess
To the smaller, lesser something
Of kill or be killed
To collect what’s left of the lost village
Back in the hills
And maybe I’ll meet you
On the road somewhere
I too ride the highways
With a hypocrite’s stare
Oh I’d meet you in the desert
If it was up to freewill
And reminisce of the lost village
Back in the hills
I’ll cover ground at dawn and dusk
And sleep through the midday heat
And with every generation that came before us
Know what it’s like to use my feet
The scenery is changing
And I haven’t moved a step
I sat down at dusk
Where I sat is where I slept
The moon set at one o’clock
The sky was star-filled
For another from the lost village
Back in the hills
