Blue ridge mountains

I have officially fallen in love with Fleet Foxes. I've been listening to them non-stop for the last few days, they're so good. I wanted to share my favourite song off their first album with you, called "Blue Ridge Mountains". It transports me to another world.


Lie down with me my dear
Lie down
Under stormy night
Tell nobody

My brother where do you intend to go tonight
I heard that you missed your connecting flight
To the Blue Ridge Mountains
Over near Tennessee

You're ever welcome with me any time you like
Let's drive to the countryside
Leave behind some green-eyed look-a-likes
So no-one gets worried, no
So no-one gets worried, no

But Sean don't get careless
I'm sure it'll be fine
I love you, I love you
Oh brother of mine

In the quivering forest
Where the shivering dog rests
Our good grandfather
Built a wooden nest
And the river got frozen
And the home got snowed in
And the yellow moon glowed bright
Til the morning light

Terrible am I child?
Even if you don't mind

In the quivering forest
Where the shivering dog rests
Our good grandfather
Built a wooden nest
And the river got frozen
And the home got snowed in
And the yellow moon glowed bright
Til the morning light

Terrible am I child?
Even if you don't mind
No

Play. Repeat. Forever.
