The sun is swinging over our heads
And tonight will fall into the canyon
A choice has followed where we have lead
But the light is getting low and we can’t catch it
You have chased me to the outskirts now
It’s funny how I used to chase you
You’d better decide quick, the sun is going down
To end it here or let me loose
I must have known that he would not be there
On the other side
It is only you that I’ve found here
And the river does not cry
I am sorry it turned out this way
But it’s your hunger that’s got you on the run
You see I know that look, I had it myself
You know the searching never ends my son
We both know I will not loose this bow
We both know you are free
But you are one of many among people you should know
With no more or less a right to be
But I am only glad for all I’ve seen
And I shake your dust in my raving flight
Keep your kingdom and I will keep moving
For the owl wakes up at night
The Oh Hellos sind was besonderes für mich. Ich mag die Wechsel zwischen den ruhigen, atmospherischen Passagen und den rhythmischen Passagen. Ich mag wie ihr Spannung aufbaut. Ich mag die Stimme von Maggie und Tyler. Ich mage den unisono Gesang der ganzen Band. Ich wünsche mir eine neue Produktion von The Oh Hellos und Surfjan Stevens; und eine Tour mit einem Konzert im Westen von Deutschland. Kert Goéland
The Oh Hellos have come to hold a very special place in my heart, not just in this album, but in others as well. Hello My Old Heart was one of the first songs I ever heard by them, and it's been a treasured journey listening to them ever since. ladyoforion
NYC polymath Wells develops rich, layered modern-classical compositions into reflections on queerness, climate change, and the AIDS crisis. Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 18, 2022
To me, this album has the best seasonal vibe of the four- the instruments evoke the rustle of wind moving dry leaves, and the sounds of birds in flight. My personal favorite of the series :) redrevelry
