lyrics

Still goes to movies, but he sits by himself
For an hour or two he's all right
But there's no double-features, and there's no guarantee
Won't be no different tonight

What is it like, going over the hill alone?
When the party is past, do you still call your house a home?
Needs you so much, but he's so out of touch
And he's lived for so long on his own
That it's a lonely man's life, going over the hill alone

Still got his job, but he cooks for himself
And he's lost all his will to survive
Now the days are all longer, nights are all longer
Feeling more dead than alive

What is it like, going over the hill alone?
When the party is past, do you still call your house a home?
Needs you so much, but he's so out of touch
And he's lived for so long on his own
That it's a lonely man's life, going over the hill alone

Looking for answers, and he's finding a few
And his friends are all there when they can
But they've all got their families, their lives, their careers
Just not around like they planned
