Smith Hill Lyrics

Elbows on the window sill
My head against the pane
You've seen so many grow and die
But you forgot most of their names

So I fire that arrow into the great big sky
And I hope that it never comes down
Unless you're coming with it
It's better with you around

I could drink myself to death tonight
Or I could stand and give a toast
To those who made it out alive
It's you I'll miss the most

But tonight I'll see my sweetheart
I've got a fifty dollar bill
But somewhere in her weak heart
She knows I never will

Oh love, it's hard to hide
True love, it's hard to find
Though I was once beside
I've fallen far behind

From a tiny room up on Smith Hill
It's easy to disappear
It's easy to run off hiding
And tell you I don't want you near
I can't stand to face the facts
It'd only leave you hurt
I don't care much for what you have to say
But I'd like to know what you heard

Oh love, it's hard to hide
True love, it's hard to find
Though I once was beside
I've fallen far behind

It's a long way free
You can't tread on me
And in the morning when you're crying
You'll see
