I grew tired of waiting in depots
watching the wheat grow alone
staring through cracking telescope lenses
along the long road that leads to our home
so I took for the city
on a whim you’d forgive me
but lost all hope in a dark concert hall
whilst the singer was screaming a blue whale symphony
what the words were now I can barely recall
will you still play hope comes easy on the gramophone
as you scratch our worried names on a bleached whale bone
oh and I got memories stashed up my typewriting sleeves
I’ll be all elbows and knees, begging please, on the cracking windowsill
well you must be just over the hill
you must be just over the hill
now I’m tough as a tiger
trained and treacherous
every wintry evening in Evelyn’s kitchen
she'd try and lecture us
and I’ve been worn down
and worn thin
but ill not be giving up or giving in.
will you still play hope comes easy on your violin
though the bones within your fingers are wearing thin
can I hunker down peacefully in the house on Jericho creek
I’ll be all elbows and knees praying please on the cracking windowsill
well you must be just over the hill
you must be just over the hill
