about
The photo of this covert art was taken at Port Willunga, South Australia where a century ago, these waters that now look so tranquil destroyed a ship named Star of Greece. What brings us peace and comfort one day can bring us turmoil and angst the next. Hope is a song about our resilience, our capacity to survive challenge and continue living and venturing into the unknown with an open and trusting heart. It is the first step of a musical project that will lead to an album, Hinterland, planned for early 2021.
lyrics
The road was long but has come to an end
You broke that spell you can start again
Your heart is weathered but your spirit is safe
Both with hope and fear on the shore you stand
The storm has gone all is calm again
Your mind is clear and at peace again
You know that trust is the only way
So with hope and faith on the shore you stand
The water is still and you sing again
You the wind will blow again
You know your strength won't fade away
With an open heart you can sail ahead
Sail ahead
Regarde le ciel, écoute la mer
Oublie les pleurs, oublie les peurs
Regarde le ciel, écoute la mer
Oublie les pleurs, oublie les peurs
Oublie les peurs, oublie les peurs
