where trees grow into giants

[thetworegs]

Here's a song influenced by my recent visit to San Francisco and the surrounding country into muir wood where the redwoods grow

I had to travel thousand's of miles to find it
That goldmine up there in them there hills
Where the rivers flows free with pure water
And the trees grow like giants in the breeze
Yeah The trees grow like giants in the breeze

Where Yesterday's can be forgotten
Where I can  Breath in the cool fresh air
Where I'm Shaded from the sun by the giants
Theres a sound of silence floating in the air
Yeah Theres a sound of silence floating in the air

It takes hard work to climb those hillsides
It takes hard work to feel so free
It takes hard work to find some solace
It took hard work to find me
Yeah It took hard work to find the place I want to be

wow

[hardlock]

Very nice! Love the mood you've presented with the open acoustic rhythm and emotional vocals.

It takes hard work to feel so free

Damn. Ain't that the truth.

Beautiful stripped-down song. If you had a thought to produce this more – drums, bass, keyboards, and other nonsense – I'm happy you had the good sense to resist that thought.

[AndyR]

Woah.

I don't often "hear" lyrics on first listen. I do on this one.

This is powerful stuff:

It takes hard work to climb those hillsides
It takes hard work to feel so free
It takes hard work to find some solace
It took hard work to find me
Yeah It took hard work to find the place I want to be
