Written and recorded in Hobart, TAS.

lyrics

I can hear the walls of the old mill creak,
Lay down darling, stay while or go on back to greet
It's true I said I'd wait a while
But the winter's deep
And I know you've got some other places,
You'd rather be

Church tower rings and the steamboats glide
Come float across dear, under shifting tides
Trees in coats of ice and white
And a howling winds a'knock and won't subside

Are we still below,
On the levy top?
Is there some other way to cross?
Is there some other way that's not,
Through the valley of greed

What do we do, when the wharf's shut tight?
Breaths and bones, past future sight
Flora's tea and stoves, that'll make us fine
And a half-moon bless darling, that'll keep us alive

Lean back slow, with your hand-made eye
Freedom beats quiet, from the churning sky
Said you'd rather go, but you ain't gone yet
So make up your mind, before the frost it sets

Are we still below,
On the levy top?
Is there some other way to cross?
Is there some other way that's not,
Through the valley of greed

I can hear the walls of the old mill creak,
Lay down darling, stay while or go on back to greet
It's true I said I'd wait a while
But the winter's deep
And I know you've got some other places,
You'd rather be
