Heart Hill

歌詞

Speeding down the motorway in the north of England I catch a glimpse of a lover's mark A forest of trees in the shape of a heart I heard an RAF went down, in his plane aflame On the hillside not far from his fiancé In her grief she planted seedlings on that naked hill You can see it still There's a heart upon the hill There's a heart upon the hill If I left now would you mourn me still? When I drive my thoughts are clear And I think of you We avoid conversation so perfectly The pilot in the plane what if that had been me? It's easier to love one gone To love an absent partner No shattered wordsm no cleaning up after But the heat that's in your body it's worth fighting for It's enough to stop a war There's a heart upon the hill There's a heart upon the hill If I left now would you mourn me still? A silhouette heart made of trees That love was meant to be Deep green against the yellow grass This love was meant to last, this love was meant to last There's no such thing as perfect love, but I've seen perfect sorrow And I've seen the strength of a woman's hand Half a century ago she made her mark on this land Now what about us, do you think, that our love will fade in time? Or can we change that age old paradigm? Unlike this English couple we are both alive We have the chance to try There's a heart upon the hill There's a heart upon the hill If I left now would you mourn me still?
