Up on the hill Lyrics

I've been down in the valley and up on the hill
Oh, honey, hope you're waitin' there still
I walked through the desert for two years
Killed my thirst with my tears
And I paid my dues and I paid the bill
To the father of loneliness

And money doesn't mean a whole lot to me
As long as I get shelter from you
And if you don't mind my company
I try to give you shelter too

I was just about to throw my life away
Nothing at all meant anything to me anymore
Often I thought I'd give it all up
I just couldn't stand the pain

Then you came along, oh what a day
There was hope again,
The flame of life started burning again
Burning again when you came along

And you really mean a whole lot to me
You also give shelter to me
And if you mind my company
I try to give you shelter too
