Story Behind the Song
Inspired by a visit to Spirit of the Earth upon arrival in Canmore, Alberta. Mountains are so inspiring, thus I write most music while in them... The song flowed within half an hour or so. Recorded nine months later in Banff (thanks Bryon!) and finally uploaded from minidisc after another nine months.
I pressed play on the drum machine, played the keyboard with my right hand and held the mike with my left. I'm amazed I got all the chords right seeing I usually play it on guitar!
Lyrics
Sky high, the breeze rushes through
The clouds pass by and inspiration is you
Mountains grounding, voices unknown
Gather to greet you, you are not alone
Follow your dreams, soar high above
Fly with the wind and embrace with love
Evening, cloud rolling in
Weather turbulent, lightening stick thin
Rushes over the beauty of here
Glory and excitement thrilling fear
Follow your dreams, soar high above,
You're on the right path so embrace with love
One day you may think of me
Singing this song and then you will see
Beauty within and around
Flying high and here on the ground
Follow your dreams, soar high above
Fly with the wind and embrace with love
Follow your dreams, soar high above
Be all you can be and be one with love.
