"Hill" lyrics

"Hill"

Girl, the way your face lit up
We pulled in that driveway for the first time and you saw
The "Sold" sign in the front yard and our name there on the door
Forever on that porch

Built in 1963
A ranch house on a hilltop, next to nowhere, Tennessee
It's a little slice of Heaven that could use some fixing up
But I ain't in no rush

That's a hill I could die on
That's a field these four wheels could ride on
Planting flowers, picking fence paint
That's the dream, girl, that's the end game
Gonna spend what's left of my life on
Loving you 'til I'm gone
That's a hill that I could die on

Oh, close your eyes, girl, can't you see
That garden in the backyard and a tire swing in the tree?
Make the kinda love that makes you paint a spare room blue or pink
When I look at you I think

That's a hill I could die on
That's a field these four wheels could ride on
Planting roots down, picking first names
That's the dream, girl, that's the end game
Gonna spend what's left of my life on
Loving you 'til I'm gone
That's a hill that I could die on

That's a hill I could die on
That's a field my boy could ride on
Planting flowers, picking fence paint
That's the dream, girl, that's the end game
Gonna spend what's left of my life on
Loving you 'til I'm gone
That's a hill that I could die on
