about

Written and performed numerous times over the past 6 years, this song has developed into one of my favorites. It captures a lot of my perspectives and dreams, which have led me to where I am. Feelings of stagnancy lead me to pursue experiences and places with the person/people I love.

Let it take you, as it takes me on the journey I sing about.

lyrics

Out on the edge of town
Surveying my stomping ground
Hoping against all hope
That I will make my way out

Can’t keep stepping these steps to
The same old beat
The same old dance
Yeah this two-step in my circumstance

So baby,
Take me on a journey up North
Seeing things we could never have dreamed
Hold me harder babe than ever before
To feel the blood flow in your veins
Hide my eyes to keep the mystery alive
I’ll hear you whispering calling my name

I’ve never been one to lead the steps
So take my arm, sway with me
No need to bring your own romance
There’s plenty here for us to share

So baby,
Take me on a journey up North
Seeing things we could never have dreamed
Hold me harder babe than ever before
To feel the blood flow in your veins
Hide my eyes to keep the mystery alive
I’ll hear you whispering calling my name, name
Calling my name
Calling my name
