This song comes from childlike flights of fancy. It was part of a trio of songs written in Macedonia, inspired by the mountain range Jakupica. Beautiful, lush, sunny landscapes tailor-made for daydreaming prompted me to imagine a faster way to ascend its peaks, maybe even reaching Solunska Glava with a snap of the fingers (and heartrending views to boot).

Two layers of musical themes laid out on the piano together tell a story of what it would be like, for a mountain trolley (a.k.a. carriage lift / funicular / teleferique, the coolest word ever) to appear and whisk us up to the top. I love hiking -- but magic is amazing too.

Full sound credits are listed at http://travelpoems.com/#about. The primary contributions to the vibe of the soundscapes scored with this track are fireworks recorded in Sweden and Cornwall, England.

If hearing this song evokes for you any memories, or fantasies, or other stories, I would love to know -- just message me here, or at eric@travelpoems.com. The live Travel Poems show features immersive storytelling, so it may be possible to weave your story into the musical experience.

Travel Poems . Chapter 1 . Secret towns

Up Jakupica

Get yourself to the edge
So you can feel
Let yourself be free
It's a good, good place to be

Make yourself breathe out
And grieve
You might just begin to need 
You might just begin to need

Keep believing
Keep breathing
Keep stealing that moment again

Dreams

Lyrics:

Look at me, you can see anything you want to
Because you're free
We try, we all cry when nothing seems to stay right
But we get by, we get by

When you feel alone I'll be by a phone
You're never on your own, you're never on your own
And you'll get by

When you're down, we can hang around
And have too much to drink while we're on the town

Cause you can be and you can see anything you want to
Because you're free

When you feel alone, I'll be by a phone
You're never on you own, I'll be by a phone

And when the feeling's gone, I'll be by a phone
You're never on your own, never on your own
And you'll get by
