Lyrics

It doesn't always come back
It doesn't always come back
Roll the ball down the hill
You could wait a million years
When I was a boy
I belonged to nothing
When I was a boy
Everything was mine
When I was a boy
I was thinking deeply
When I was a boy
When I knew my mind
When I was a boy
Words were never needed
When I was a boy
Explain everything
When I was a boy
I remember feeling
You are not the one
Oh, yes I am
It doesn't always come back
It doesn't always come back
Roll the ball down the hill
You could wait a million years
When you were a child
Did you hear the birds sing?
Was it all one bird?
Was it all one song?
Was it just one word
Falling from the heavens?
Was it just one wave
Pulling you along?
When I stole the fire
Everything went frigid
When I stole the fire
When I felt the rift
What I stole the fire
I had stolen nothing
Why did I ever try?
You cannot steal a gift
It doesn't always come back
It doesn't always come back
Roll the ball down the hill
You could wait a million years
Roll the ball down the hill
Roll the ball down the hill...
