Over You

This is another track off the concept album of a young man's experience of growing up in Ireland and having to find a new place to live many miles from where he was born. Music and lyrics: Phil Bowen Guitars and keyboards: Phil Bowen Mixed and produced: Phil Bowen Lyrics: Verse 1 The sun shines down on this summer’s day Glistens on the river as it wends its way There’s a hole in my heart. I feel I’m coming apart Over you. Verse 2 The wedding bells ring from over the hill People are dressed up to the over kill Well, it should have been me. I feel I’m all at sea Over you. Chorus It’s one crash after another It tears my heart right through It’s one crash follows another You know I feel so blue Verse 3 One job today, another tomorrow Nothing in my pocket. Nothing to show Yet I work so hard, my fingers to the bone Over you. Verse 4 I’ve a whisky soaked pa in the devil’s claw Living on the margins of the U.S. law With three brothers and I, so hard to get by, over you.
