lyrics

Floating my loves on the wind
Eros is pirouetting
He draws my eye
Bleeding me dry as I wait in the wings

Back then I built him a shrine
Hope tied together with twine
And hasty dreams
That he could turn the old waterwheel in my mind

Oh but those greener hills
Calling me home until
They’re slipping like sand in the breeze
Like the rusty fall leaves to find
Greener hills

I left you on the first day of June
Red rhododendrons in bloom
And turned my eye
As you deflated like a tired balloon

Susan, I can still hear you laugh
Holding your tears in your hands
And asked me why
But I was out searching for what I don’t have

Oh ‘cause those greener hills
Calling me home until
They’re slipping like sand in the breeze
Like the rusty fall leaves to find
Greener hills
To find greener…
