I'm a fool to be sitting alone in the evening I'm a fool to be singing the blues I'm a fool to be trying to be not like my mother Who was trying to not to be hers It's a circle, It's a habit It's a round about bath ring And we're trying to scrub at the scum And in life I am finding that it's best to keep trying Cuz baby it's not done til it's done There will be hills, there are hills, no matter how far you get There will be hills, There are hills, no matter how we try to get over it There are corners and caverns that won't soon forget me And the faces that I knew will be loved But I cannot quite rest until I'm next to the breast of The one that I'm so happy to love There will be hills, there are hills, no matter how far you get There will be hills, There are hills, no matter how we try to get over it And the truth is in a book smashed inside some kids locker And a physicist is making it so Since the physical laws of science constrain me I can't be two places at once There will be hills, there are hills, no matter how far you get There will be hills, There are hills, no matter how we try to get over it To my mother, my sister and all who once knew me I am here now, but soon I'll be gone And in life there are losers, they are cowards and liars And you can bet I was neither of those
