[Intro]
Sittin' in this cage of my own design,
Watchin' your shadow from this lonely line.
You came in bloom, covered all the gloom.
My heart fell both ways when you entered the room.
[Verse 1]
I had given up on finding rest,
Done with fighting, failed the test.
For every mountain I was meant to seek,
There was just another lonely peak.
That was the destiny for someone meek.
I marched on, jaw set, grittin' my teeth,
When I found you on a green hill beneath.
A peaceful valley, a gentle heath,
A perfect moment, just out of reach.
You are the one I could never keep.
[Chorus]
You made me smile, you made me weak,
My heart screamed words it could never speak.
You stole the time and made us laugh,
How I longed to be your other half.
[Verse 2]
I never wanted to leave that hill,
No other thrill could match the bill.
It wasn't the height, the climb, the view,
It was only ever, only you.
The world narrowed down to the space we two knew.
But you belong to the sun-warmed stone,
A settled mountain, stood alone.
And I am a bird,of the restless air,
A truth we both knew, a pain we had to bear.
A love that was kind, but never fair.
[Bridge]
We were two different lands,never meant to touch,
You asked for so little,and it was still too much.
My love was a storm on your peaceful face,
I couldn't build a home in that sacred space.
[Final Chorus]
You made me hope, you made me weak,
My heart screams words it still can't speak.
You gave me time and made us laugh,
I'll always long to be your other half.
[Outro]
My mountain to admire...
My impossible hill...
I'm still on that hill.
Yeah, I'm still on that hill.
