Redwood Hill Lyrics - Gordon Lightfoot

I climbed the Redwood Hill 

'Twas on a rainy day 

To rise above the throng 

And talk with Mother Nature for a while 

She told me of her love 

For the children in her trust 

And of her grave concern 

For the likes of you and me and us 

Crying though she was 

She did speak these tender words 

The things that I am 

I could not change for any man 

I tried to comfort her 

Ah, but she would not be still 

And how the rain did fall 

As I found my way back down the Redwood Hill 

Crying though she was 

She did speak these tender words 

The things that I am 

I would not change for any man 

I tried to comfort her 

Ah, but she would not be still 

I'll not forget that day 

When Mother Nature cried on Redwood Hill 

I'll not forget that day 

When Mother Nature cried on Redwood Hill
