Show me how,
through way of love,
to get past my selfish pride.

Over the hills I sadly ride
to fill my gaping heart.

Afar you are,
my wonderful love,
until I must arrive.

Over the hills I sadly ride
to fill my gaping heart.

Rest alone
without a love
while I wither and die.

Over the hills I sadly ride
to fill my gaping heart.

Another day,
still no love,
from the rose of my eye.

Over the hills I sadly ride
to fill my gaping heart.

How can I live
holding onto a love
in which you can't confide?

Over the hills I sadly ride
to fill my gaping heart.
