about

Trees...and festivals. Croissant Neuf Festival (solar powered) was a favourite. In the evenings after all the performances, musicians would gather in the trees at the ancient hill fort. The wood sculptor, Dale and his daughter, Serenderri, would share their fire next to their Gypsy Caravan and we’d sing and play until the early hours. A beautiful space for friends, old and new, to relax. Thank you, Dale.

lyrics

Beautiful

It’s beautiful here, birds sing.
Home, horse drawn rock and roll, and the rain.
Home, horse drawn rock and roll, and the gentle rain.
It’s beautiful here, clear skies, blue midnight, popping fires, and the flames.
Blue midnight, popping fires, and the dancing flames.

I’m sitting down with a woodland man; he’s got strong arms, rustic charm.
And his woodland child, she can walk for miles, got a beautiful smile.

It’s beautiful here, oak tree, time, flute pipes and holly twists, and the drum.
Time, flute pipes and holly twists, and the elder drum.
It’s beautiful here, true words! Sweet, sweet sounds of violin and the wind.
Sweet, sweet sounds of violin and the singing wind.

It’s beautiful here, smoke haze, full moon silhouettes, and the stars.
Bright moon beams, happiness, and a million stars.
It’s beautiful here, birds sing.
Home, horse drawn rock and roll, and the rain.
Home, horse drawn rock and roll, and the gentle rain.
