[Verse 1]
I am a child in these hills
I am away
I am alone
I am a child in these hills
And looking for water
And looking for life

[Pre-Chorus]
Who will show me the river and ask me my name?
Is there nobody here who will do that?

[Chorus]
Well, I have come to these hills
I will come to the river
As I choose to be gone
From the house of my father
I am a child in these hills
I am a child

[Verse 2]
Chased from the gates of the city where no one had touched me
I am away
I am alone
I am a child in these hills
And looking for water
And looking for life
[Pre-Chorus]
Who will show me the river and ask me my name?
Is there nobody here who will do that?

[Chorus]
Well, I have come to these hills
I will come to the river
As I choose to be gone
From the house of my father
I am a child in these hills
I am a child
I am a child
I am a child
