I heared a beatiful folk or country song on the radio the other day, but I just remember some parts of the lyrics. It would be great if somebody could tell me the NAME of this song!! It kinda goes like this:

"And somethimes at night I could hear her cry, she cries out the name of...(thats all i remember)"

It also has the words 'Hill' and 'Ashes' in it.
I really hope that somebody can help me to find this song!!!

no, its not that song, but thanks for replying that fast! In the song im looking for, a man is the singer, and its a very sad song. In think its also about a fire, not just ashes. But its also about him standing at her grave. The "and somethimes at night, I could hear her cry..." and so on, is in the refrain.
