lyrics

Yonder is a mountain
Yonder is the sea
I'm down by the river
That will carry you to me

I feel the day come closer
Soon you will be here
Soon I'll see my troubles
And my worries disappear

I dream of you, my darling
Each night of the year
I dream you're lying next to me
And whisper in my ear

Tell me that you need me
Just like I need you
That you'll love me when it rains
And when the skies are blue

When I wake up
Time to break up
Such a doggone shame
Every morning
I let her go and it's
Driving me insane

I would climb this mountain
I would build a shrine
I would give my life
To make you come to me in time

And I'd swim every ocean
Time and time again
I'd do all it takes
To bring this yearning to an end

So, tell me what you're asking
Tell me what's your claim
I am at your mercy, darling
This is not a game

Please send me a message
Please gimme a sign
I'm beggin' on my knees
Release this poor heart of mine

Can't you hear me
Call you near me
Come and ease my pain
I'm on the brink
And I start to think
That all my love's in vain

Come to me, come here close
Come to me, I need you most
Come to me, step inside
Stay with me tonight

Come to me, come here for good
Come to me, just like you should
Come to me, stay inside
We will be ALRIGHT

Or I will keep on waitin'
Till my days are done
Waitin' as we go
In endless circles 'round the sun

And, no, it won't be easy
Yes, it will be tough
'Cause all is never all
And good is never good enough

about

Long Tall Jefferson

Setting a fantasy genre as focal point for the search to renew his folk sound, Long Tall Jefferson's 3rd album Cloud Folk became dazzling and deliberately vague, an album for the now with elements of trap, cloud rap, chillwave. Glittering synths, commanding beats, envelope rides, autotune, pads and leads and sine waves – none of this mere ornament. All is music, all is Cloud Folk. ... more
