Steemit open mic week 43... Higher (Original song)

in #openmic7 years ago (edited)

A big hello to all my friends and followers on steemit.

I share with you my song called Higher for steemit openmic week 43.
It was written a long time ago. I was a simple hillbilly caught up in the heat and dust of cities like Bombay and Delhi longing for the green pasture and mountains, so I wrote this song missing home. It was recorded in studio for the first album of Slik Route ( my band ) but was left out for unforeseen reasons though we did perform it on stage as a band.

I hope you enjoy the music.

Thank you again to @luzcypher and @pfunk for giving us this beautiful platform to share our music. To know about openmic week go to Steemit Open Mic

Lyrics :

Fly a little higher
High up to the snows
There lives a little girl
Her name I'd like to know

Higher and higher
Fly all the way
Go where she's waiting
Tell her I'm on my way

She wears rings on her fingers
Silver on her nose
You'll find her in the valley
You'll find her on the snows

Higher and higher
Fly all the way
Go where she is waiting
Tell her I'm on my way

Fly little bird
Fly all the way
Fly to the mountains
Far away

I'm a long way from home
I wish I was not alone
So I fly
I know what love is like
I will die but I will fly
For you... For you

She's walking with the wind
With flowers in her hair
She smiles like the sun
Her laughter is everywhere

Higher and higher
Fly all the way
Go where she is waiting
Tell her I'm on my way

Fly little bird
Fly all the way
Fly to the mountains
Far away

I would love to hear the recorded studio version.
Silk Route is one of my all time favourite bands ❤️ Such an inspiration ✨

Thank you @hardikv for your vote. The studio version is lost somewhere.

I like to listen to new tracks etc. with my eyes closed and that was great. Then I read @chrisgoans comment about the projected backcloth and had to listen and this time watch. 😊 I am not sure about the added visual aspect, but then each to their own I guess. However, listening a second time, I enjoyed the song even more. 👏👏 😊 Nice one.

Thank you @steelygeoff for listening and appreciating. I am so happy that you listened twice.
