Call me a liar, a king or a fool But sing me a song of prosperity Higher and higher the further we fall Hard to remember
I will surrender and I'll always wait Wait as in all of eternity
Hard to remember, and hard to forget The shadow that hangs over me
Take me home, to a house on a hill, in oblivion And take away the shadow over me
Cry me a river but once you run dry Say there's a reason you do
Godless endeavors, smothered and broken All that I wanted was you.
Take me home, to a house on a hill, in oblivion Where souls never die all alone You're longing for love, not for sympathy So take away the shadow over me
Under the starlight you shine in solitude Eyes on the ocean and far beyond west of the moon
Take me home, to a house on a hill, in oblivion Where souls never die all alone You're longing for love, not for sympathy Over the hills
Home, to your house on a hill, to oblivion Where souls never die all alone You're longing for love, not for sympathy So take away the shadow over me!
