Mike- The Fool On The Hill

Mike- The Fool On The Hill

I chose these songs as a perfect complement to this story. It's based on the storyline and books by Nicholas Rhea all rights go to him and to the bands that wrote these songs that i have used in this story.

Day after day,
Alone on a hill,
The man with the foolish grin is keeping perfectly still
But nobody wants to know him,
They can see that he's just a fool,
And he never gives an answer,

But the fool on the hill,
Sees the sun going down,
And the eyes in his head,
See the world spinning 'round.

Well on the way,
Head in a cloud,
The man of a 1000 voices talking perfectly loud
But nobody ever hears him,
Or the sound he appears to make,
And he never seems to notice,

But the fool on the hill,
Sees the sun going down,
And the eyes in his head,
See the world spinning 'round.

And nobody seems to like him,
They can tell what he wants to do,
And he never shows his feelings,

But the fool on the hill,
Sees the sun going down,
And the eyes in his head,
See the world spinning 'round.

Ooh, ooh,
Round and round and round.

And he never listens to them,
He knows that they're the fools
They don't like him,

The fool on the hill
Sees the sun going down,
And the eyes in his head,
See the world spinning 'round.

Ooh,
Round and round and round

Mike shook as the tears coursed down his cheeks and dripped from the point of his chin into his cupped hands she was gone the woman he loved most in the world his wife had been having an affair with one of her clients and had left leaving a letter explaining why she thought it was a good idea that they split up.

Mike didn't even flinch as a set of strong arms went round his waist, the arms belonged to Gina Ward the licensee of the local pub she kept hold of him until the tears soaking straight through the thin material of her shirt she rubbed his back and spoke soothingly to him trying to calm him and reassure him that he will find someone else to love him for the rest of his life.

What Hurts The Most lyrics

I can take the rain on the roof of this empty house
That don't bother me
I can take a few tears now and then and just let them out
I'm not afraid to cry every once in a while
Even though going on with you gone still upsets me
There are days every now and again I pretend I'm ok
But that's not what gets me

What hurts the most
Was being so close
And having so much to say
And watching you walk away
And never knowing
What could have been
And not seeing that loving you
Is what I was tryin' to do

It's hard to deal with the pain of losing you everywhere I go
But I'm doin' It
It's hard to force that smile when I see our old friends and I'm alone
Still Harder
Getting up, getting dressed, livin' with this regret
But I know if I could do it over
I would trade give away all the words that I saved in my heart
That I left unspoken

What hurts the most
Is being so close
And having so much to say
And watching you walk away
And never knowing
What could have been
And not seeing that loving you
Is what I was trying to do

What hurts the most
Is being so close
And having so much to say
And watching you walk away
And never knowing
What could have been
And not seeing that loving you
Is what I was trying to do

Not seeing that loving you
That's what I was trying to do

Mike shook and more tears coursed down his cheeks and his shoulders shook violently he couldn't help it the song was making the pain he suffered worse and he didn't know if it would ever lift.
