This version live in concert.
lyrics
Saw Mr Walker, he was singing in the day,
liquid amber trees above, and he was holding sway,
stand and deliver, looked to be Don's way, yea he got me thinking.
If I climb, I climb up to here, if I've stumbled, I've stumbled right here,
anywhere I've been, it's brought me right here, yea and I notice,
you're right here too.
Mother left her world behind for a convent and new land,
father fled a losing war, with his losing clan,
'lay low have fun', said the taxi driver to the nun.
Spanish river flows through a clear Baltic stream,
Black Swan Canning Creek three waters run in me,
got me swimming back to the sea, yea it's got me swimming.
If I climb, I climb up to here, when I've stumbled, I've stumbled right here,
anywhere I've been, it's brought me right here, yea and I notice,
you're right here too.
Magpie she's a gossip, parrot's a coloured charm,
dove dies as the crow flies, and there's a falcon on my arm,
all you women you make me wonder, yea you make me wonder.
Boy's got a brand new dad, but we still get away,
under desert gold field skies, we lay awake,
giant ochre warriors, sacred circle birthing day,
they got us dreaming, yea they got me dreaming.
If I climb, I climb up to here, when I've stumbled, I've stumbled right here,
anywhere I've been, it's brought me right here, yea and I notice,
you're right here too.
Yea I notice.....
