Cabin on the Hill
Nostalgic Journey: Recapturing the Essence of a Happy Childhood Home
Lyrics
There's a happy childhood home in my memory I can see
Reflecting on a joyful childhood home that exists in memory.
Standing out upon the hill 'neath the shadow of the tree
Describing the home situated on a hill under the shade of a tree.
If I only had my way it would give my heart a thrill
Expressing a desire for things to happen as the speaker wishes, bringing joy to the heart.
Just to simply wander back to the cabin on the hill.
Longing to return to the cabin on the hill, emphasizing simplicity and nostalgia.
Oh I want to wander back to the cabin on the hill
Reiterating the desire to return to the cabin on the hill.
'Neath the shadow of the tree I would like to linger still
Expressing a desire to linger beneath the tree's shadow at the cabin.
Just to be with those I love joy my heart would over fill
Stating that being with loved ones at the cabin brings overflowing joy.
Just to simply wander back to the cabin on the hill
Repeating the simple desire to wander back to the cabin on the hill.
But the saddest of it all I can never more return
Acknowledging the sadness of being unable to return to the childhood home.
To that happy childhood home matters not how much I yearn
Expressing a yearning for the happy childhood home despite the impossibility of returning.
If I only had my way it would give my heart a thrill
Reiterating the desire for things to happen as the speaker wishes, for a thrilling heart.
Just to simply wander back to the cabin on the hill
Repeating the simple longing to wander back to the cabin on the hill.
