There's
a house on a hill in
Coromandel
Valley
With a tree out in the back
yard that I used to climb
And I remember yesterday in
Coromandel
Valley, like little old home movies
playing in my mind.
Gather round children, I have stories to tell you,
I have photographs to show you,
I have memories to share and
your lucky little children
You come from love as big as the valley
And stronger than that big old tree
Let me take you there
There's a house on a hill
In
Coromandel
Valley
With a tree out in the backyard
That I used to climb
And I remember autumn leaves
In
Coromandel
Valley
Floating on the breeze
In afternoon sunshine
Mother, dear mother
You are the
Coromandel songbird
You gave me the gift of music
And now I've passed it on,
raising children in the valley
And you sang to keep us warm
And you sang to keep us fair
And you did it on your own
There's a house on a hill
In
Coromandel
Valley
With a tree out in the backyard
That I used to climb
And I remember yesterday
In
Coromandel
Valley
Like little old home movies
Playing in my mind
There is a house on a hill
In
Coromandel
Valley
With a tree out in the backyard
that I used to climb
