THAT LAST HILL

lyrics

THAT LAST HILL words/music: bill mallonee

You write such things when the last few grains of sand
fall through the slender neck of the hour glass
come what may
come what will
i just wanna see over
that last hill

It's funny how things can get so damn misplaced
where you bet the farm and where you put your faith
you know time is such a precious thing to kill
i just wanna see over
that last hill

will my highbeams flood the plain?
will the gatekeeper know my name
will there be someone to claim me for his own?


Well, you whisper to yourself when time runs low
Darling, I'll carry every smile we shared with me when i go
Lord, gather me unto Thyself when my wayward heart grows still
i just wanna see over
that last hill
i wanna see over
that last hill
