Mountain bound

my new song Windows down as we leave the city lights behind us today Heading north where the pine trees sway and the foggy winds play Got the cooler in the back and the old guitar on the seat Leaving all the heavy noise and the concrete summer heat Driving past the rice fields where the morning sun begins to glow Taking every winding turn and moving steady, moving slow We're climbing up the ridges where the air is getting thin and sweet With the spirit of the highlands and the rhythm of the beat Oh we’re chasing the clouds on the mountain side With the barkada on this long and winding ride From the peaks of Sagada to the Benguet trails This connection we have never ever fails Just the open road and the green below Everywhere the mountain breezes blow Stop the car at the viewpoint just to see the valley floor Every mile we travel makes us want to see a little more Sharing stories from the past while we pass the snacks around Finding peace in every silence and every natural sound Coffee in a plastic cup while we watch the mist descend There is nothing like the laughter of a long-time loyal friend Whether it’s the Cordillera or the hills of Sierra Madre We are brothers on a journey, we are more than just a party Oh we’re chasing the clouds on the mountain side With the barkada on this long and winding ride From the peaks of Sagada to the Benguet trails This connection we have never ever fails Just the open road and the green below Everywhere the mountain breezes blow No signal on the phone but we’re more connected than before Watching eagles soar above the ancient forest floor The engine hums a melody as we reach the highest crest In these islands of the north we have finally found our rest Oh we’re chasing the clouds on the mountain side With the barkada on this long and winding ride From the peaks of Sagada to the Benguet trails This connection we have never ever fails Just the open road and the green below Everywhere the mountain breezes blow
