"A Forest" (Gallup | Hartley | Smith | Tolhurst)

Come closer and see

See into the trees

Find the girl

While you can

Come closer and see

See into the dark

Just follow your eyes

Just follow your eyes

I hear her voice

Calling my name

The sound is deep

In the dark

I hear her voice

And start to run

Into the trees

Into the trees

Into the trees

Suddenly I stop

Though I know it's too late

I'm lost in a forest

All alone

The girl was never there

It's always the same

I'm running towards nothing

Again and again and again and again and again and again …

"A Ri Rang" (or "Arirang") is a traditional Korean folk song that is, by many, considered Korea's unofficial national anthem. 'Arrirang' is named for one or several mountain passes in Korea, where it is told that a mythical maiden was murdered by her unrequited lover. However, this tragic story has been tamed, and has been further romanticized into one recounting, simply, a maiden who complains about her unresponsive lover.

The version here, to which I remixed and added instrumentation, was recorded by The Chung Sisters in the late 1960s. It is from a extremely rare vinyl LP entitled "Traditional Folk Songs."
