This is a song about taking a break from the craziness of New York to enjoy the beautiful redwood trees and mountains of California.
lyrics
It’s time to take those city lights and bars and restaurants in mind,
'cause I'm leaving them all behind.
And don’t let it fill my heart, or let it fill my mind.
To leave it all behind.
‘Cause oh, I’m alive
And oh, I’m alright.
I’m not alone
I’ve got what I need,
In a family of redwood trees,
mountains and the sea, mountains and the sea.
I don’t miss tall buildings or concrete,
I look up to redwood trees,
Mountains and the sea, mountains and the sea.
Hey, everybody has their people and their place.
That gives them what they need.
Here, I find myself so cradled by the green
And how I sway and flow with the sea.
And oh, now I see.
Oh, now I see.
I’m not alone
I’ve got what I need,
In a family of redwood trees,
mountains and the sea, mountains and the sea.
I don’t miss tall buildings or concrete,
I look up to redwood trees,
Mountains and the sea, mountains and the sea.
Oh, it hasn’t been long.
But oh, it feels like home.
I’m not alone
I’ve got what I need,
In a family of redwood trees,
mountains and the sea, mountains and the sea.
I don’t miss tall buildings or concrete,
I look up to redwood trees,
Mountains and the sea, mountains and the sea,
Mountains and the sea, mountains and the sea.
