Over The Hill |
| I’m over the hill, under the bridge |
| Still a few peaks and valleys, I ain’t seen |
| You talk about love, I talk about love |
| I don’t know any better than to dream |
| I know your father’s house, it has many rooms |
| I see the young men sweeping up with their brooms |
| But if you want me |
| I’m over the hill |
| Yeah if you want me |
| I’m over the hill |
| I’m long in the tooth, and what can I say |
| I’ve taken huge bites of life and I ate the bones |
| The gristle and marrow feeds my soul |
| Gives me the strength to forgive all the sticks and stones |
| And what you see in me you think I see too |
| I didn’t get here telling stories for you |
| But if you want me |
| I’m over the hill |
| Yeah if you want me baby |
| I’m over the hill |
| I hear a distant cry |
| A tear forms in your eye |
| For the way things might have been |
| We can’t live that again |
| No time to fill the cup |
| No time to screw it up |
| We’ll have to place our bets |
| On a dog with no regrets |
| Well time won’t tell, heaven or hell |
| Time just pisses his secrets down the street |
| You talk about love, I talk about love |
| Sometimes I’ll even think we know what we mean |
| No band of angels bringing peace to the streets |
| We wear the garments and we shuffle our feet |
| But if you want me baby |
| I’m over the hill, yeah |
| But if you want me baby |
| I’m over the hill |
| Oh, I’m over the hill baby |
| I’m over the hill baby |
| I’m over the hill baby |
