Man on the Hill

A jazz/bossa song that can be heard by visiting my music web site http://www.muziboo.com/DavisLight/music/albums/dave-nelson-which-one/

Man on the Hill

You see the man on the hill,

he's searching for his thrill,

you know he's been up there all night,

yeah he's been there before,

searchin for the shore,

he just can't see the light,

He tried everything he knew,

to keep his mind off you,

but he just can't get it right,

you know when you said goodbye,

you hurt more than just his pride,

but he just can't get it right, cause he still loves you

You see the man in the cage,

you know he's rumblin with rage,

you see his world has come all undone,

he just doesn't understand,

all the things that he planned,

he's lost his love for havin fun

He gave his love,

but you needed more,

then you said you would never leave,

he gave his heart,

but you let him fall

let him grieve

Thank you for sharing your songs. Love is difficult and I think those that have it are lucky and should enjoy it while it lasts. The woman sounds like she wanted too much from him. No one should have to give up their hobbies/interests ("he lost his love from havin fun") in order to have someone love them in return. I like it that you included a link to hear your song.

I wish I could hear this to music, but I am on dial-up and I takes forever! I liked this story of the jilted lover and enjoy reading your lyrics. I guess, if everything was all sunshine and roses, all we would have to written about is sunshine and roses. That mean woman; she should be spanked!!
