Eva Gertz- Elk's Eye (Live Studio Video)

Thank you to these incredible musicians and creatives who helped bring this song to life: Talia Rubenstein on guitar, Chris Sartori on upright bass, Sean Trischka for the beautiful videography, and Dan Cardinal for unbeatable audio work and studio Dimension Sound in Jamaica Plain, Boston, MA.

Big thank you, of course, to that elk grazing on the side of the road in Yellowstone, who's photo I rudely took, to leave me with a massively deep reflection on nature and beauty.

Lyrics:
What do I do with all the scenes on this trip
So I don’t forget all the things I’ve done

Places that feature wild roaming creatures
And when I see her, I just nearly lose my mind

Who am I? Who am I?
Taking your picture as I drive on by
Wasn’t that rude of me? I apologize
I’ve never looked into an Elk’s Eye

How would I look back if I don’t take a photograph?
But I feel guilty when I use my phone to see

Who am I? Who am I?
Taking a picture to pocket the sunrise
Silly human; I apologize
It never looks the same as real life

I put my mind back in it all
I close my eyes try to recall
The sounds, the smells
The sight of the elk’s eye

Magical orb
Deep wondrous soul
A big black sphere reflecting light

Who am I? Who am I?
Taking your picture as I drive on by
Wasn’t that rude of me? I apologize
I’ve never looked into an Elk’s Eye

And when I looked into an Elk’s Eye

I thought, who am I?
