Over The Hill
I'm over the hill, under the bridge Still a few peaks and down the hills, 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 longing a tooth, and what can I say I've taken huge bites of life and I ate the bones The gristle and mellow 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 SongtexteI 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 door 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 Aus Songtexte Mania
