The Fool on the Hill 的歌詞如下:
Verse 1:
I sat alone at the edge of the road
Watching the world go by from a distance
No thought of what I might have to do
Or the weight of the world on my shoulders
Chorus:
I was just a fool on the hill
Looking at the clouds and the sunset
Feeling the world was on my hands
And I knew that I could not change it
Verse 2:
Then I heard a sound in the distance
A train coming up from the valley
I knew that it would not be long
Before my life would be on the move
Chorus:
I was just a fool on the hill
Looking at the clouds and the sunset
Feeling the world was on my hands
And I knew that I could not change it
Bridge:
But I learnt a lot in my solitude
About the things that really mattered most
And I found that there was no need to be sad
I was free to be me and to follow my dreams
Chorus:
And now I'm just a fool again
Looking at the clouds and the sunset
Feeling that life is on my hands
And I know that I can make a difference
Outro:
So I'll sit alone at the edge of the road
Watching the world go by from a distance
With no thought of what's to come
Just my own reflection in the water nearby.
