Hilli (At the Top of the World) Lyrics
von amiinA
At the top of the world there's an island / A place where the sun never shines
But the people don't care / Because the snow over there / Is so bright they nearly go blind.
They live at the foot of a mountain / Where the flowers last hardly a day
But they live off the land / Lend each other a hand / On this island where night is their day.
They'd have punished me if I dared tell you / And if I asked them they'd say they don't know
But what keeps them healthy / Even though they're not wealthy / On this magical island is snow.
The flakes as they fall look like candy / Children rush out when it snows for a treat
Then they open their mouths / And gulp down the flakes / Because nothing on earth tastes so sweet.
But then one dark day / Smoke blew in their way / And the temperatures got higher
On the horizon they saw fire / And the waters did rise / As the snow started melting away.
And the people weren't tearful / Not fearful or scared
Because the secret was out there / At last, the secret was shared.
They watched as the ice turned to water / And streamed down into the sea
And lit up the ocean / And crept in slow motion / Towards a world that they never did see.
And people in lands round the planet / Were in shock as the light came to shore
And lit up their beaches / And even their teachers / Couldn't say what the bright light was for.
It flowed upstream through the mountains / Burst out through their fountains / Breaking all life's natural laws
‘Til it lit up the planet / And all who lived on it / Were touched by this magical force.
And they looked all around / At the sky, at the ground / And they realised the damage they'd done.
As they started to cry / Their tears filled the sky / And black storm clouds gathered above
And then the heavens opened / And the rain came to show them / That their world needs a little more love.
At the top of the world there's an island / A place where the sun never shines
But the people don't care / Because the snow over there / Is so bright that the sun's in their mind.
But the people don't care / Because the snow over there / Is so bright they nearly go blind.
They live at the foot of a mountain / Where the flowers last hardly a day
But they live off the land / Lend each other a hand / On this island where night is their day.
They'd have punished me if I dared tell you / And if I asked them they'd say they don't know
But what keeps them healthy / Even though they're not wealthy / On this magical island is snow.
The flakes as they fall look like candy / Children rush out when it snows for a treat
Then they open their mouths / And gulp down the flakes / Because nothing on earth tastes so sweet.
But then one dark day / Smoke blew in their way / And the temperatures got higher
On the horizon they saw fire / And the waters did rise / As the snow started melting away.
And the people weren't tearful / Not fearful or scared
Because the secret was out there / At last, the secret was shared.
They watched as the ice turned to water / And streamed down into the sea
And lit up the ocean / And crept in slow motion / Towards a world that they never did see.
And people in lands round the planet / Were in shock as the light came to shore
And lit up their beaches / And even their teachers / Couldn't say what the bright light was for.
It flowed upstream through the mountains / Burst out through their fountains / Breaking all life's natural laws
‘Til it lit up the planet / And all who lived on it / Were touched by this magical force.
And they looked all around / At the sky, at the ground / And they realised the damage they'd done.

And then the heavens opened / And the rain came to show them / That their world needs a little more love.
At the top of the world there's an island / A place where the sun never shines
But the people don't care / Because the snow over there / Is so bright that the sun's in their mind.
