"Heartline Hill" lyrics - THE CASTELLOWS

No peace unless y'all find yonder
Looking up on the Heartline
It sure looks good tonight
The Southern sky, it dims, calling me back in
Looks like a friend, I'm just chasing the wind

[Chorus:]
Blues 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 climbed a mountain again

My baby had to leave
Now I'm losing sleep
Wish it was a 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

[Chorus:]
Blues got me down, the spirit in the wind
Wonder if it's the devil or if it's just my friend
Days go by quickly, nights drive along
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 raise
Him in the grave
He's the one who left me
Now he has to pay

[Chorus:]
Blues got me down, all the things I've tried
To keep my thoughts from chasing me into the great divide
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
