about

Fraser Island in Queensland, Australia is an awesome place for a holiday. Not so awesome when you're the only one without your girl there. Banksia, a white native flower, is commonly found on this world-heritage island. One of the fresh-water lakes (sand filtered over a LONG time), Lake McKenzie is my favourite. This song captures the longing for love even while you're surrounded by natural beauty (not unlike Adam longing for Eve before she was created for him, if you wanted to be biblical about it)

lyrics

They play the songs
The ones that make me think of you
And I do
I miss you

I see the stars
The ones that make me dream of you
And I do
I dream of you

These days are hard to bare
Even without a care
I have no peace to share
Without you

When it comes 'round
The day that we were meant to be
Oh I'll be
Holding you

Now there's just me
The me I hope you wanna see
Oh I pray
That you wait

These days are hard to bare
Even without a care
I have no peace to share
Without you

Oh...
You're my Banksia
Oh...
You're my Banksia

These days are hard to bare
Even without a care
I have no peace to share
Without you

Peter B & The Homeless Souls Brisbane, Australia

When our friend's mum heard that we were playing at his sister's birthday party, she said 'You tell those guys their souls have a home'. Thank you, Mrs Manning. We hope so.
