lyrics

Higher and brighter
Every day
You float like an angel
Flying further away
Oh-oh-oh, leaving me
Your perfect memory
See the chalk on the sidewalk
The rain is washing away
All the colours are blending
Swirling down the drain
Oh-oh-oh, leave no trace
No picture of your face

One day you will vanish
No form left for me to see
Just an old idea
Shining silver for me

Now I am frozen
Here in your past
Like a snowy Christmas scene
Inside a globe of glass
Turn me over in your hand
Stir me to life once again

One day I will vanish
No features for eyes to see
Just an old idea
A half-remembered melody

So leave if you will
You leave me the best of you still
Cold and bright
In the night that’s calling me

about

The High Dials Montréal, Québec

The High Dials are an indie pop band from Montreal.
While their melodic sensibility, harmonies and jangling guitars owe an obvious debt to the 60s and power pop groups, they also draw upon shoegaze, new wave and folk sounds to create rich and varied albums.
