She came up the hill and she waited till
There's no one else around
He just left the mill when he took his girl
Right there on the ground
She sat down alone 'stead of going home
Looking at the view
New lad broke a bone
Couldn't get him home
Didn't know what to do
All alone, looking at the view
Couldn't get home, didn't know what to do
She came up, and she waited till
Up the hill, there was no one round
Took a spill, right there on the ground
New lad broke, couldn't get him home
He went up the hill
The air was so still
A hot and sultry day
Couldn't shift his mule, feel such a fool
Walking by the way
She was sitting there with her feet all bare
On the other side
He was so fair
Oh how we started
Such a pretty sight
It was love and his heart just stood still
It was love but they're on the top of a hill
It was love but they didn't realize
It was love and it took them both by surprise
The church clock chimed one
She began to run
Down the street so fast
Couldn't let her go
Was a little slow
Caught her up at last
Tears were in her eyes,
 to his great surprise
She began to cry
But he was so fair
Oh how we started
He felt that he could die
He was so fair, with her feet all bare
She did cry, he felt that he could die
Up the hill, the air was so still there
All alone, looking at the view
Up the hill, there was no one round
Heart stood still, and they stayed until two
They went down the hill, holding hands untill
She came to her home
Looking in her eyes, then he realized
His love was far from gone
Hot and sultry day, went on his way
Happy as can be
Lucky was his life, for he took a wife
That's his destiny
It was love and his heart stood still
It was love but they're on the top of a hill
It was love on the top of the hill
It was love for the man who came from the mill
It was love but they didn't realize
It was love and it took them both by surprise
It was love and his heart stood still
