Piecing together a new album, thinking back to the times we spent on the road, we wanted to share this cover of one of our tour van's most-played artists: Nina Simone.

"Why Keep on Breaking My Heart" was written by Bennie Benjamin & Sol Marcus and performed by Nina Simone on the album "Wild Is The Wind."

This cover was recorded, mixed, and mastered by Secret Cities: Marie Parker, Charlie Gokey, and Alex Abnos

********************************************************

Late at night I stay up counting cards until persuaded that I'll save 
Rolling round in circles in my head, my heart is heavy with the weight 
I can't wait not knowing when I'll finish writing this and hoping to brave be brave 

Maybe we'll come a little closer too the days where we can run up and down hills, and just be, forever and ever 
Maybe we'll grow a little closer holding hope that we'll wash away our inner rage and we’ll turn the tides of our seamless fate 

So we breathe deep, slow 
We keep it deep, low 
And we acknowledge the pain the loss the sadness so we lose it forever 

I know this 
I know my mind refuses to grow 
I know this 
I know my body takes the load 

Maybe we'll jump a little higher coming close to the days where we can run up and down hills and just be forever and ever 
Maybe we'll fight a little harder holding hope that well wash away our inner rage and well turn the tides of our seamless fate 

So we breathe deep and slow 
We keep it deep and low 
And we acknowledge the pain the loss the sadness so we lose it forever
