Name: One Story
Duration: P00H04M40S
Description: One Story is about reflecting on being, melancholy in that it's relentlessly, irretrievably passing, and risky, but joyful in it, just in being, en joy, joie de vivre. There're some images from my youth, my hometown, trees in a mound round apple trees, a seawall, fisher's net... some also doubling up as biblical references.

One Story is about reflecting on being, melancholy in that it's relentlessly, irretrievably passing, and risky, but joyful in it, just in being, en joy, joie de vivre. There're some images from my youth, my hometown, trees in a mound round apple trees, a seawall, fisher's net... some also doubling up as biblical references.

lyrics

There's a story I know it's been told there's a story
I know little bits of
a story I know
completely I know
of a life in a place in a history

2.
in a shelter away from the fox and the wind
in the night of the dragon
stayin inside
yes stayin alive
for another good day for another good day

3.
there's a storm in the black in the time which is gone
and nervously passing
the seawall in sight
the seagull in flight
the fisher's net the fisher's net

4.
wind bending stalk as grateful as the dream
and the leaves of the grassland
moon in the clouds
stones in a mound
round an apple tree round an apple tree
