The Hill

Walking up the hill tonight
And you have closed your eyes.
I wish I didn't have to make
All those mistakes and be wise.
Please try to be patient
And know that I'm still learning.
I'm sorry that you have to see
The strength inside me burning.

Where are you my angel now
Don't you see me crying?
And I know that you can't do it all
But you can't say I'm not trying.
I'm on my knees in front of him
But he doesn't seem to see me.
But all his troubles on his mind
He's looking right through me.
And I'm letting myself down
Beside this fire in you.
And I wish that you could see
I have my troubles too.

Looking at you sleeping
I'm with the man I love.
I'm sittin' here weeping
While the hours pass so slow.
And I know that in the morning
I'll have to let you go.
And you'll be just a man
Once I used to know.
And for these past few days
Someone I don't recognise.
This isn't all my fault
When will you realise.

Looking at you leaving,
I'm looking for a sign.
