You asked me to wait for you to Gkeep you in my Dheart 
To A7keep you in my Dheart 
Chorus:
GNight after lonely night I’m waiting for you Dstill 
High above the lights of town A7here on Heartbreak DHill 
Now maybe I am the foolish kind to think of you so long 
Have you found another love am I still the one 
Am I still the one for you but you're far away 
Do you ever dream of coming back to me someday 
Back to me someday 
Chorus
On AHeartbreak Hill alone at Dnight I think of Ahow you held me Dtight 
And wonder Gif I ever Dwill see you A7again on Heartbreak DHill 
Oh Lord if I only could go back in time enough 
I'd hold you in my arms again and never let you go 
Never let you go my love and leave me far behind 
High upon this lonely hill were you swore to be mine 
You swore to be mine
