Lyrics T-Bone Burnett

T-Bone Burnett

Over You

There's a fine between love and hate

That we erased, that we erased

What started as a mask became a face

The pain untraced, the pain untraced

I been a long time searching for you

I been a long time breaking through

I'm gonna be a long time getting

Over you, over you

Standing in my doorway facing south

The moon comes up, the sun goes down

Wondering what this noise was all about

The dust blows in, the light blows out

I spent a long time looking for you

I spent a long time breaking through

Gonna be a long time getting

Over you, over you

Down the road I see the fog roll in

As thick as fear, as dark as sin

We live in an age lit by lightning

After the flash, we're blind again

I been a long time searching for you

I been a long time breaking through

I'm gonna be a long time getting

Over you, over you, over you, over you
