Harris Emmylou Heartbreak Hill Lyrics

Heartbreak Hill Lyrics

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  

 To 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  

 Never let you go  

 Never let you go my love  

 And leave me far behind  

 High upon this lonely hill were you swore to be mine  

 You swore to 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
