Helens Hill by The Winterless North Lyrics

Road weary and my whole body’s buzzing
Been holding on to this wheel for far too long
Why don’t you call your cousin
Just a little while and we’ll meet her by the sea

Helen won’t you meet me on the hill
Don’t leave me waiting all alone too long
Helen won’t you meet me on the hill
Please won’t you catch me I’m far from rollingstone

Where we’re going there are no roads
We’re gonna need boats if we take the car
Pass the silky oak to tully then on to midgenoo
Heading deep into the north

Don’t be afraid to jump in to cool off
But everywhere signs are warning us
Even in the prettiest places
There are things with teeth sharing the salty waters

It’s been dark for hours and hours
Jose’s on repeat keeping me company
Haven’t seen another car for hours and hours
The road’s always longer than you think it would be
It’s been dark for hours and hours
Jose’s on repeat keeping me company
Haven’t seen another car for hours and hours
The road’s always longer than you think it could be

Hard to get rid of the sand in our pockets
And from in-between our toes
Little souvenir from the places we’ve been
Drifting through dee why so good to be home

Why don’t you meet me by the esplanade?
On that bench around ten it’s ok
It’s ok now you can go to sleep
It’s ok go asleep now my darling

Hard to get rid of the sand in our pockets
And from in-between our toes
Little souvenir from the places we’ve been
It’s ok go asleep now my darling

It’s been dark for hours and hours
Jose’s on repeat keeping me company
It’s been dark for hours and hours
Jose’s on repeat keeping me company
