about

This is what plays in my head when I am surrounded by the vast and bright plains or the mysterious and gloomy spaces of one of the most beautiful places on this Earth.

lyrics

Rocks from the hills
Greens from the pastures
Water from rivers and fog from the lakes
Form the house i dreamt i built in the rain

Roots of the trees
Moved by the breeze
Run deep underground as they put me at ease
I pull down my hood and walk through the gate

Walkways and footpaths
Secrets and old songs
Sayings and chimneys and rust

Bramble and birdsong
Hillocks and waterfalls
Droplets make rainbows in the gust

Don't you dare taking my heart like that
Don't you dare taking my heart

Places of fallow
Cattle or silence
Stone rows and wooden carvings
And everywhere around you stands history

Mystical hollows
Caverns and tors
Weathered gravestones been here long before us
Slow your pace and pause for a moment

Walkways and footpaths
Stories and old songs
Thatched roofs and chimneys and rust

Bramble and birdsong
Hillocks and waterfalls
Droplets make rainbows in the gust

Don't you dare taking my heart like that
Don't you dare taking my heart

Rocks, greens, water
Roots, shapes, Forms
Walkways, Secrets, Sayings
Bramble, Hillocks, Droplets
Rainbows

Walkways and footpaths
Stories and old songs
Thatched roofs and chimneys and rust

Bramble and birdsong
Hillocks and waterfalls
Droplets make rainbows in the gust

Don't you dare taking my heart like that
Don't you dare taking my heart
