Sounds Like Hallelujah
The Head and the Heart Lyrics
I'm just waiting on the sun
To close his eyes and call the night
So we can put all our differences aside
I'm just waiting on the moon
With all the stars and all it's gloom
We can watch it fall right back into place
So I won't keep myself around
Just to keep you warm
Woo woo woo
Woo woo woo
Oo oo oo
Momma don't put no gun in my hand
I don't wanna end up like these men
Momma don't put no gun in my hand
I don't wanna end up like these men
I'm not walking away
I'm just hearing what you're saying
For the first time
Sounds like hallelujah for the first time
For the first time
Singing hallelujah for the first time
And I'll miss you someday
I'll miss you someday
I'll miss you someday
I'll miss you someday
I'll miss you someday
I'll miss you
I'm not walking away
I'm just hearing what you're saying
For the first time
Sounds like hallelujah for the first time
For the first time
I'm singing hallelujah for the first time

Composed primarily of transplants to the Seattle area, The Head and the Heart write and play songs that speak to the newness of a fresh start, of the ghosts left behind, of moving forward, all brimming with a soulfulness and hope for a better life than the one we've all been sold.
Stylistically, think a folksy Beatles or The Avett Brothers with a little extra oomph. Catchy piano melodies stand side by side with a tight trio of harmonies, and solid minimalist drums, groovin' bass, and plenty of hand percussion and foot stomps make the live show inspiring and really goddamn fun.
After the band self-released its eponymous debut album in June 2010, the emblematic Seattle label Sub Pop re-released the album. For the Sub Pop version, the song “Sounds like Hallelujah” has been re-recorded, live favorite “Rivers and Roads” has been added, and the album has been re-mastered.
The band's second album "Let's Be Still" was released on October 15, 2013.
The band released their third studio album, "Signs of Light", in September 2016.
The band's fourth album, "Living Mirage", was released in May 2019.
Band member Josiah Johnson released his debut solo album, "Every Feeling On a Loop", in September 2020.

With all the stars and all its gloom
We can watch it fall right back in to place
So I won't keep myself around
