The Humblebums - Look Over The Hill And Far Away

Copied!

Look over the hill and far away
We'll see the start of a brand new day
Heaven help us when it arrives
One more day with tears in our eyes
For the only one, lonely one
Lonely one, where can she be?

The figure stands at the windowpane
Up to the hill he looks again
Thinking back, he knows he was wrong
How could he leave his home for so long
And he's back to find no change of mind
He was blind, where can she be?

Why does he stand just outside the door
It does no good, he's stood there before
And just waved his hand, I don't understand
There's no one there, so who can explain?

Look over the hill and far away
We'll see the start of a brand new day
Heaven help us when it arrives
One more day with tears in our eyes
For the only one, lonely one
Lonely one, where can she be?

The Humblebums were a Scottish folk group that originated in Glasgow in the mid 1960s. The band was formed by two talented musicians, Billy Connolly and Gerry Rafferty. The duo quickly gained a following in the local music scene with their unique blend of folk, blues, and comedy.

Billy Connolly, known for his comedic talent and charismatic stage presence, provided the group with humorous lyrics and entertaining banter during their performances. Gerry Rafferty, on the other hand, brought his exceptional songwriting skills and musical prowess to the table, creating a dynamic musical partnership that captivated audiences.

The Humblebums released several albums during their time together, including "First Collection of Merry Melodies" and "The New Humblebums." Despite their success as a duo, Billy Connolly and Gerry Rafferty eventually decided to pursue separate musical paths.

Both Connolly and Rafferty went on to achieve further fame and success in their respective solo careers. Billy Connolly became a household name as a comedian and actor, while Gerry Rafferty found international acclaim with hit songs like "Baker Street" and "Stuck in the Middle with You."

Although The Humblebums may have been short-lived, their influence in the Scottish folk music scene and the lasting impact of their individual careers continue to be felt to this day. The duo's legacy lives on through their timeless music and the enduring talents of Billy Connolly and Gerry Rafferty.
