"Heartline Hill" lyrics

No peace and rest I'll find
Yonder looking up
On the heartline
It sure looks good tonight
Southern sky it dims
Calling me back in
Looks like a friend
I'm just chasing the wind

Blue's got me down
I'm dragging on
My baby's not here with me
Might as well be dead and gone
Said he had to leave me
I felt like it rained
The heartline's not a hill
I'm climbing mountain again

My baby had to leave
Now I'm losing sleep
Wish it was dream
It's just reality
I'll ride until I die
Hills and hollows wide
Every place I find
Takes me back to that heartline

Blue's got me down
A spirit in the wind
Wonder if it's the devil
Or if it's just my friend
Days go by quickly
Nights travel long
The heartline's not a hill
But I'm still singing this song

I made up my mind
Right at closing time
These memories they haunt me
So I guess you'll have to die
It's not a sin I'll raise
Him in the grave
He's the one who left me
Now he has to pay

Blue's got me down
All the things I've tried
To keep my thoughts from chasing me
Into the great divine
The day he had to leave me
I felt like it rained
The heartline's not a hill
But he'll be buried there some day
