Hills of Home
Journey of Reflection: Rediscovering Roots in 'Hills of Home'
Lyrics
I set out to see the world
I embarked on a journey to explore the world.
Called myself a rambiln girl
I identified myself as a wandering or adventurous girl.
All the roads I traveled took me far away
All the paths I took led me far from my starting point.
You can't outrun the hands of time
Time's influence is inevitable; you cannot escape it.
A spinning wheel will always find
A metaphor for life's cycles – a spinning wheel will always come full circle.
A way to circle back around to yesterday
There's a way for events to return to the past or familiar territory.
Oh, the hills of home
Expressing nostalgia or yearning for the familiar landscapes of home.
long time gone
A significant amount of time has passed since being in the hills of home.
rollin like a song
Comparing the rolling hills to a song, suggesting a rhythmic and comforting nature.
back where i belong
Returning to where one belongs, indicating a sense of coming back home.
the hills of home
Reiteration of the emotional connection to the hills of home.
The sidewalks and the busy streets
Contrasting the busy urban life with sidewalks and crowded streets.
White lines and the sound of speed
Describing the fast-paced and noisy nature of life on the road.
And everyone you sometimes meet ain't always kind
Meeting people on the journey, acknowledging that not everyone encountered is kind.
Love can be a game you play
Love is depicted as a game that can be played during the journey.
A rocky road that goes one way
Life's path is challenging and may only lead in one direction, like a rocky road.
I have seen it turn away and it sure ain't blind
Love can sometimes fade or turn away, and it's not oblivious to its surroundings.
Oh, the hills of home
Reiterating the sentiment of longing for the familiar hills of home.
long time gone
Emphasizing the extended period since being in the hills of home.
rollin like a song
Continuing the analogy of the hills rolling like a song, highlighting their enduring nature.
back where i belong
Expressing the joy of returning to where one truly belongs.
the hills of home
Reaffirmation of the emotional connection to the hills of home.
