I went up a hill to cry a river
Picking out bits of your dinner
Sit in the garden smoking cigarettes
You told me not to follow in your footsteps
I ran down the river taking photos
Not knowing where life was gonna go
I don’t wanna remember the bad days
It’s not the thought, I want to take away
I went up a hill to cry a river
You wear too many coats and still shiver
I just wanna sit down and say it’s fine
But you’d shake your head and say "oh that’s a lie"
I’ve never ever seen you cry
But I guess the moment was never right
You joke about how it’s gonna end
Think your thoughts got stuck in your head
Now things are getting cold
Not strong enough to run anymore
I went up a hill to cry a river
Seems my prayers didn’t deliver
Seems my prayers didn’t deliver
Cried in my bed when I find out
Lied in my head when I found out
Cried in my bed when I found out
Lord help me because I’m alone now
