♬ music! ♪ a song about finding friends and meaning in life. ‣ instrumental by @The-Music-Trader (go give him some love!), lyrics/melody/singing by yours truly. ‣ thumbnail pic by Wolfgang Hasselmann on Unsplash ‣ mixed on Audacity NOTES: ‣ the C section is a little strange in terms of timing ‣ sorry the cutting is a bit rough, I didn't spend too much time on it despite being a perfectionist lol. See if you can find them! - fixed in Audacity ‣ is this too wordy? It feels quite wordy eh ‣ pardon my voice, I recorded this at midnight (what else is new) - nvm recorded again whew
I looked into dusty skies Wind in my hair and sand in my eyes There was a figure, trav’ling slow Walking with no purpose, nowhere to go A young girl with eyes of old sand in her hair and wind in her cloak I asked her where to everywhere I looked, I couldn’t see home she said, “I’ve walked many a horizon Looking for a sign, a sign of life I never thought that someday I’d somehow see a glimpse of light” I looked around, from the west to the east Scanned and surveyed, with nothing to see “what are you looking for, darling?” I inquired “I don’t see anything but your eyes are afire” she said, “You talk, meandering mind I’m looking, looking for you cities of people and still I felt alone in the chaos and no one knew “I’ve walked many a horizon looking for a sign, a sign of life hope—gone, yet still I walked and never found a soul until you” As she talked I began to see, Despite my confusion, she was just like me drowning in the desert, alone in the crowd noises all about but I couldn’t make a sound hope—gone, yet still I walked and never found a soul until you here we are strangers hand in hand glad to be found footsteps in the sand glad to be found footsteps in the sand 06/20/20: Recorded using voice memos on my iPhone. 11/13/20 Re-recorded!
