Call me a liar, a king or a fool But sing me a song of prosperity Higher and higher, the farther 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 This shadow that hangs over me
Take me home to a house on a hill, in oblivion And take away this 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 your 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
