Heartbreak Hill - Emmylou Harris

A long long time ago when we were young

You swore to me I would be the one

I would be the one you loved, but we had to part

You asked me to wait for you to keep you in my heart

Keep you in my heart

Night after lonely night

I’m waiting for you still

High above the lights of town

Here on heartbreak hill

Now maybe I am the foolish kind to think of you so long

Have you found another love?

Am I still the one?

Am I still the one for you, but you’re far away?

Do you ever dream of coming back to me someday?

Back to me someday

Night after lonely night

I’m waiting for you still

High above the lights of town

Here on heartbreak hill

On heartbreak hill, alone at night

I think of how you held me tight

And wonder if I ever will see you again

On heartbreak hill?

Oh Lord, if I only could go back in time enough

I’d hold you in my arms again and never let you go

Never let you go my love and leave you far behind

High upon this lonely hill where you swore you’d be mine

You swore you’d be mine

Night after lonely night

I’m waiting for you still

High above the lights of town

Here on heartbreak hill

Night after lonely night

I’m waiting for you still

High above the lights of town

Here on heartbreak hill

Here on heartbreak hill

Here on heartbreak hill
