about

Long lost, lonesome love song with haunting Cello by Ethan Mitchell.

lyrics

A Thousand Miles Or More
Can you hear the wind come?
It's calling at your door
It comes from very far away
A thousand miles or more...
Will it bring you sweet dreams?
Will it ease your fears?
Will it bring a true love
To see you through the years?
(oooh...)

My love she was a rainbow
She shone on all around
She coloured up the new sky
When the storm was done
So I took me a ladder
And I climbed the highest rung
I picked me a sweetheart
And claimed her for my own
(oooh...)
Claimed her for my own
Claimed her for my own
I picked me a sweetheart
Claimed her for my own

Can you taste the water?
It's cool and it's clean
It comes on down the mountain
To this stubborn stream
My life is like that river
Every day's a stone
Some I only cast away
Some I'd want to hold
(oooh...)
A thousand miles or more
A thousand miles or more
You can hear the wind come
A thousand miles or more
(S H Palmer 2022)

about

Stephen Hardy Palmer Gatineau, Québec

‘There are miles in Palmer’s voice; you can almost see the scenery that his mind has captured through the decades of his life. Palmer’s songwriting and guitar playing are tasteful and bittersweet, his music is crafted with feeling and poetic flair. I’m reminded of another acoustic icon, Gordon Lightfoot.”- TwangTown Magazine ... more
