about

RESTING PLACE is the Drover’s final letter to his love. He may have left the world but his spirit remains alive in nature, from which hopefully she may draw some comfort, when she revisits their favourite places. It provides a celebratory ending to the album after a couple of darker tracks.

lyrics

RESTING PLACE

You will find my heart under a rock by a stile
You will find my spirit on the breeze
You will find my will on the brow of a hill
And you will find my love among the trees

We would meet at the kissing gates
In the shadow of the hill
I'd be gone for a month or two
So there we stood, silent, still

And I'd think of you along the track
Once on my way I daren't look back
To the place where I'd far rather be
With you in hand, beneath the tree

You will find my heart under a rock by a stile
You will find my spirit on the breeze
You will find my will on the brow of a hill
And you will find my love among the trees

And one day it could come to pass
That this hard life will breathe its last
But what we have will always be
From hill to valley, river to sea

You will find my heart under a rock by a stile
You will find my spirit on the breeze
You will find my will on the brow of a hill
And you will find my love among the trees
You will find my love among the trees
