High Above the River by Ryan Duffy published on 2023-07-30T20:56:33Z Inspired by the view of the St. Lawrence river at Parc Kiskotuk, and the view from the peak of Mont Olivine, this song takes on some lively folk-like qualities in its melodies and chords. High above the river You’ll meet folks from far and wide High above the river It’s where I go for peace and quiet Way up high From down low Forging streams and mountains so Up ahead Trail goes on Who can tell what lies beyond? High upon the mountain There are sights you’ve never seen High upon the mountain Its blissful views are like a dream Way up high From down low Forging streams and mountains so Up ahead Trail goes on Who can tell what lies beyond? The landscape calls to me I reply A chorus of horns belts out a fanfare on high I see the town Sun smiling down I thank my lucky star that we made it this far Way up high From down low Forging streams and mountains so Up ahead Trail goes on Who can tell what lies beyond? Only we know what’s beyond! Genre Folk & Singer-Songwriter
