about

A hike on the Appalachian Trail as a teenager has something to say to my older self.

lyrics

Mountain Blues

Quiet trail, dreaming mountains,
Down the ridgeline into blossoms.
Rhododendron, lit in sunshine,
Sweat works lower onto shoestrings.

Floating higher, Mountain Blues,
Drifting lower, Mountain Blues,
Seems I always have to dream
To find my way in Mountain Blues.

Dreaming mountains, true companions,
Lighter burden, narrow pathway,
Stepping upward, take in water,
Climbing inward, heart is pumping.

Floating higher, Mountain Blues,
Drifting lower, Mountain Blues,
Seems I always have to dream
To find my way in Mountain Blues.

Valley greenness, cloak of shadow,
No more counting for tomorrow.
In the shelter feel the lightness
In the oneness and the stillness.

Floating higher, Mountain Blues,
Drifting lower, Mountain Blues,
Seems I always have to dream
To find my way, in Mountain Blues.
