Dear Friends,
Please enjoy this track and video, Clouds, off my solo album, Far and Wide. It's a sweet and simple song about nature, life and love. The video is a collection of clips recorded on my cell phone in travels on tour in 2016 in Europe, West Africa, and USA.
CLOUDS
wheat fields know which way to blow,
trees know how to bend
clouds know to float across the sky
rain comes pouring down
I don't know which way to go,
north, south east or west,
clouds know to float across the sky
rain comes pouring down
so alone , so full of life,
as the sun shines,
as the day dies
tears and smiles,
born on the same face,
a heart beats with pain,
a heart beats with joy.
your eyes are full of love.

Thanks for your support!
Peace and Love,
Miriama

Far and Wide
music and lyrics by Miriama
I'm trying to find my way out here,
Make my way across the world
Travel Far and Wide.
Meet beautiful and interesting people,
Hang around with Mother Nature,
Travel Far and Wide.
Try tasty fruits I've never heard of,
share them with a friend,
Travel Far and Wide.
Walk all day until my feet are aching.
Sit down for a drink.
Travel Far and Wide.
Jump into the cool cool water,
Float on down the stream,
Travel Far and Wide.
Dance all together in the moonlight,
Fire burning high,
Travel Far and Wide.
Travel Far and Wide,
Open up your eyes,
You said you want to see something beautiful.
Travel Far and Wide,
Now you must decide,
It's time to really feel the wonder.
It's Beautiful!
