Lyrics
We hiked up the mountain in the woods
We embarked on a journey up a mountain within the forest.
I thought maybe we could make out,
I had the hope or anticipation of engaging romantically with you.
You looked up through the branches in the sky
You gazed up at the sky through the tree branches.
And we named the constellations
We identified and named the patterns of stars in the sky.
Up in the sky we saw the tressel overhead
In the sky, we noticed the structure above us, camouflaged by leaves.
It was disguised in the foliage,
It was hidden amidst the foliage.
Out to the edge we looked down onto our toes,
Standing at the edge, we peered down at our feet, observing only the valley below.
Only the valley lie below
Only the valley lay beneath us.
Another July, hiking in the dark
During another July, we trekked in darkness.
A new love, twisted fingers happy hearts
Experiencing a new love, our intertwined fingers and joyous hearts.
Beside you, there was nothing else at all
Beside you, there existed nothing else for me.
I followed you
I followed your lead.
I loved you running through the trees
I adored seeing you move swiftly among the trees.
Your soft voice was a Lord upon the air
Your gentle voice held a significant presence in the atmosphere.
In a simple conversation
During a straightforward conversation.
Up above the canopy of trees
Above the covering of trees.
We reached the blue above the green
We arrived at the sky beyond the green canopy.
And what we came for, was much more
What we sought was far more significant than what I had initially imagined.
Than I had, in my mind.
The outcome or experience surpassed my prior expectations.
