about

A song about death... and life.

lyrics

In a corner at the end of the world
Looking out across the view
Face is warm I got the sun in my eyes
With a hand on my coffee and the other on you- ooh

Bury me alone beside the long, tall grass
Where the wind can forever sing
I never wanted more than I could grasp
Beyond the mountains or the streams
There’s a voice that whispers
like the water’s endless kisses
Always circling the sun
There’s a song within me
Like a wild endless storm
Falling to the earth and then reborn- ooh

Spider-strings in the leaves of the trees above me
Reaching up into the blue
Weightless clouds paint their shifting stories
Day-dream dancing just for you.- ooh

And the years go by and I am getting older
And I’m walking a road that ain’t so new
Who’ll surround me in the golden weather?
Am I alone or am I with you? – ooh

Bury me alone beside the long, tall grass
Where the wind can forever sing
I never wanted more than I could grasp
Beyond the mountains or the streams
There’s a voice that whispers
like the water’s endless kisses
Always circling the sun
There’s a song within me
Like a wild endless storm
Falling to the earth and then reborn- ooh

about

Colette Rivers Wellington, New Zealand

Colette Rivers is an American-born, New-Zealand raised, self-proclaimed 'Kiwi'.
This doesn’t sound like a debut album, as it is full of confidence and assuredness, as if the person at the heart of it all had been doing this for many years. 
We have folk and singer-songwriter styles being mashed together with indie and alternative rock by someone who knows exactly what she wants to achieve.
