The Hill

And talking about Once, of course, who can forget this beautiful, heart-breaking song, The Hill?

Looking up the hill tonight
When you have closed your eyes,
I wish I didn’t have to make
all those mistakes and be wise.
Please try to be patient
and know that I’m still learning.
I’m sorry that you have to see
the strength inside me burning.

Where are you my angel now?
Don’t you see me crying?
And I know that you can’t do it all
But you can’t say I’m not trying.
I’m on my knees in front of him
But he doesn’t seem to see me.
But all his troubles on his mind
is looking right through me.
And I’m letting myself down
by satisfying you.
And I wished that you could see
I have my troubles, too.

Lookin’ at you sleeping,
I’m with a man I know.
I’m sitting here weeping
while the hours pass so slow,
And I know that in the mornin’
I have to let you go
And you’ll be just a man
once I used to know,
Before these past few days
someone I don’t recognize
This isn’t all my fault.
When will you realize?

Lookin’ at you leavin’,
I’m looking for a sign
