Walking Down The Hill
by R.E.M.
Walking down this hill tonight
I had a thought all to myself
As I contemplated the moonlight
I had a thought all to myself
As I contemplated the moonlight
We've got it all, we've got it made
I don't know how I got here
But I'm holding on for the crash
I don't know how I got here
But I'm holding on for the crash
Pull myself out of the moon
I know I'll never go there but
It's shining down from up on high
We got it made, we got it made
I don't know what we gotta make
Sooner or later lay down
I know I'll never go there but
It's shining down from up on high
We got it made, we got it made
I don't know what we gotta make
Sooner or later lay down
We're apart, go to pieces
Why not go to sleep
Why not go to sleep
Look into my heart, oh baby
Don't become a part of the past
You can be a part of the keep
Don't become a part of the past
You can be a part of the keep
Don't turn away, don't run away
Don't leave me hanging by a thread
Shine a little love down on me
Don't leave me hanging by a thread
Shine a little love down on me
We're in love, make your peace
Wasting time is all you need
Wasting time is all you need
Walking down this hill tonight
I had a thought it was my own
Moon swept by the clouds and save the starlight
Or shall I be or shall I not be
I don't know I just don't
Feel like it tonight
I had a thought it was my own
Moon swept by the clouds and save the starlight
Or shall I be or shall I not be
I don't know I just don't
Feel like it tonight
[Long Instrumental]
In the church
One day you'll get hurt
In the school
teachers such a fool
And if they would ever come round here
They would ever come
Blame it on my style
Take a pill
Don't tell me how to feel
One day you'll get hurt
In the school
teachers such a fool
And if they would ever come round here
They would ever come
Blame it on my style
Take a pill
Don't tell me how to feel
Bad news in twos
Sing it from the highest hill
Sing me some sad song
Sing it from the highest hill
Sing me some sad song
Uncle Sam
Playing in the sand
Understand
Hold my hand
Time is never gonna stop running
Never gonna stop
Take me to the top of the tree
Don't take me far a cracked window pane
Playing in the sand
Understand
Hold my hand
Time is never gonna stop running
Never gonna stop
Take me to the top of the tree
Don't take me far a cracked window pane
Bad news in twos
Shout it from the highest hill
Sing me some sad song
Shout it from the highest hill
Sing me some sad song
Don't rehearse
This is the last verse
In the hearse
Going through your purse
And if they would ever laugh
Not here
They would ever laugh
Blame it on my style
Once again
Don't take me far a ride in the rain
This is the last verse
In the hearse
Going through your purse
And if they would ever laugh
Not here
They would ever laugh
Blame it on my style
Once again
Don't take me far a ride in the rain
Bad news in twos
Shout it from the highest hill
Sing me some sad song
Shout it from the highest hill
Sing me some sad song
