    Story Behind the Song
    Motivation: life is a fight.
    Meaning: don't give up.
    How long to record? Too long since I never
    got around doing it.
    How many takes? A couple for instruments
    and once for lyrics.

    Lyrics
    The wind was cold and the sky
    were totally black
    From the border on the other side
    soldiers ran back
    The sound from the cannons
    rolled down from the hill

    Despite the roar from the battlefield
    a soldier screamed out
    all of the men in the trench
    could hear him shout
    Don't retreat, you cowards
    come with me up to the hill
    Chorus:
    I can reach the top
    no matter what you say
    I will fight my way up to the hill
    I can reach the top
    so give me your last pray
    and you will see me on the hill

    He took his rifle and crawled
    down the enemy line
    until he reached the bridge
    he was doing fine
    The mist from the river
    saved his life this time

    He could reach the top
    and crawled up on his knees
    He was reaching the flag at the top
    as he waved the flag the cannon roar stopped
    and he was standing on the hill

    Chorus:
