Nicky Flowers - On the Hill Above the Covered Bridge
from holiday card by Nicky Flowers / VAXXERS / Echo Vessel
lyrics
in the house on the hill
above the covered bridge
the table in the kitchen is extended for
the guests
they know what is coming to the house
on the hill
it comes every year
through the covered bridge
the leaf in the table in the kitchen
is pushed back together
they exchange loaded glances across
the kitchen
in the house
on the hill
an "i'm sorry
but this is just the way it is"
met with an "i'm just the way i am
and i won't be sorry"
all without words
the words will come later
through the covered bridge
dressed in their sunday finest
above the covered bridge
the table in the kitchen is extended for
the guests
they know what is coming to the house
on the hill
it comes every year
through the covered bridge
the leaf in the table in the kitchen
is pushed back together
they exchange loaded glances across
the kitchen
in the house
on the hill
an "i'm sorry
but this is just the way it is"
met with an "i'm just the way i am
and i won't be sorry"
all without words
the words will come later
through the covered bridge
dressed in their sunday finest
