Over the Hill
I heard the grass is greener on the other side
Only if you abide
By the rules they preach to sinners
Only those who reach it are truly winners
And the everlasting pulsing is gone
I’m coming home
Ascending the mountain, soul alone
Where the judgments delay
That’s where I will stay
Over the Hill
Where the waters all run still
And the dreams you meant to fulfill
Really do come true
And will I see you?
That’s all I’ve tried to do
To reach you
Through the wintry chill
Body laying still
Over the Hill
Do not cry for me
Please, my dear son
The battle is won
Do not try to join me
You’ve only just begun
Fight for your right to live
For the right to love
To receive and to give
The treacherous journey I have taken
The moments of happiness forsaken
Morality, conscience misshapen
I can relive it all
Once I have reached the call
From over the Hill
