"Lady Of The Hill" lyrics

"Lady Of The Hill"

Have you heard about the lady of the hill?
You all like to think that she's crazy
But I've made up my mind
I'm going to see her tonight
Would you like to come along?

She lost her family in a fire
Her husband and her daughter and her baby
She tried to kill the pain
But the bullet just nicked her brain
Now y'all think she's insane

I just want to see ya, be with ya
Even when I'm gone, I'm here, right here with ya
I want to feel ya, heal with ya
Even when I'm gone, I'm here, right here with ya

Doctors say that's when she started seeing spirits
The first ones were her daughter and her baby
And that's why I need to see her
Cuz I know that she's a seer
And I have things to be seen

She lives in hiding on that hill
And they say there's no way I'll ever find her
I search day and night
And then I see a campfire light
It's the lady of the hill

I just want to see ya, be with ya
Even when I'm gone, I'm here, right here with ya
I want to feel ya, heal with ya
Even when I'm gone, I'm here, right here with ya

I call her name and go beside her
She falls to her knees as I cry to her:
I say, "You need to know I'm fine
And my love for you won't die
Like I did in that fire"

"I love you Lady of the Hill
And I'll take care of our daughter and our baby
Oh my darling wife
Live a wonder-filled life
Cuz that's the magic pill
To fill holes you couldn't fill
And kill pain you couldn't kill"

I just want to see ya, be with ya
Even when I'm gone, I'm here, right here with ya
I want to feel ya, heal with ya
Even when I'm gone, I'm here, right here with ya

I just want to see ya, be with ya
Even when I'm gone, I'm here, right here with ya
I want to feel ya, heal with ya
Even when I'm gone, I'm here, right here with ya

I just want to see ya, be with ya
Even when I'm gone, I'm here, right here with ya
I want to feel ya, heal with ya
Even when I'm gone, I'm here, right here with ya

I just want to see ya, be with ya
Even when I'm gone, I'm here, right here with ya
I want to feel ya, heal with ya
Even when I'm gone, I'm here, right here with ya
