Over the Hillside Songtext
von The Blue Nile

Working night and day, I try to get ahead
But I don′t get ahead this way
Working night and day, the railroad and the fence
Watch the train go roll around the bend

Over the hillside, over the moment
Over the hills and waiting

Working night and day, I try to get ahead
Working night and day don't make no sense
Walk me into town, the ferry will be there
To carry us away into the air

Over the hillside, over white water
Over the hills and falling


The stars in your eyes, knowing what′s right
The stars in your eyes don't explain

Over the hillside, over the hillside
Over the hills and waiting
Over the hillside, over the hillside
Over the hills and home, we'll go

Tomorrow, I will be there
Tomorrow, I will be there
Tomorrow, I will be there
Oh, you wait and see

I can′t go on and I can′t go back
I don't feel so matter-of-fact
I tried and tried to make good sense
What′s the good to try it all again?
