lyrics

I asked you no questions

You told me no lies

Just smoke from your mouth

And sparks like a fire

As the skiff was lowered to the sea

Untying knots and running free

Following the moonlight from the shore

To where the stars are falling

We’re flying across the bay

Behind our wake its trailing

A salty milky way



Hanging on it won’t be long

Down the backroads we’ll be gone

Flying in the shadows of young pines

To where a lonely giant still resides

All alone against the sky

Scorned as timber

Touching you and I

Do you feel a warm wind blowing

Over the land today

Green boughs gold and moaning

Bending down to the bay



I asked you no questions

You told me no lies

Slicing the flesh from the

Bones with a knife to

Feed us for another day

Sweat the nights and lay it away

Awake before the dawn light meets the shore

Do you hear the eagles calling

Diving down to the bay

Low clouds in the morning

Carry our dreams away

Do you hear the eagles calling

Diving down to the bay

Clouds melt in the morning

Carry our dreams away

about

The Sweet Lowdown Victoria, British Columbia

With the rough waters of the Pacific around them and the wilds of the Canadian North above them, Amanda, Miriam and Tad of  THE SWEET LOWDOWN  have developed original acoustic music that draws from earth and sky. You’ll hear influences as far-ranging as Appalachian fiddling, contemporary pop, Celtic jigs and that particular Canadian  blend of driving tradition and ground-breaking originality. ... more
