The day is, lo, bright and blue
But what would it be without you—
A light without an eye to see it
A world without a discovering spirit.
I find myself walking up and down the hills
Hoping you'll be there
Wishing you'll be there
A light breeze does kiss gently my cheek
Not sure what is meant that I seek
Walking ahead, which is nowhere I know
But that seems where my life will always go
Am I trying too hard? Maybe I should try not to try
And just keep on walking, keep on walking
[Chorus]
After going down, you always go up
But maybe it's relativity
No matter how you relate, it's “up” to me
No thing could ruin this date, if only...
Street signs passing, they don't tell me a thing
Because I'm away... a way in mind...
Oblivious to the obvious
But how much can you ask a man of my kind?
I find myself walking up and down the hills
Hoping you'll be there
Wishing you'll be there
Up those Northern Hills
Let go, let go as you head straight up
Nothing to relate—that's everything
Just let the neighbourhood surround me
And everything confound me (found me)
[Chorus]
After going down, you always go up
But maybe it's relativity
No matter how you relate, it's “up” to me
No thing could ruin this date, if only...
Up those Northern hills Up those Northern hills
Up those Northern hills Up those Northern hills
The six songs on this record combine the brass-heavy sounds of jazz and afrobeat with pulsing dance beats to intoxicating effect. Bandcamp New & Notable Jul 25, 2020
