about

Written after a family holiday to Brittany, France in September 2013. We rented a little house that was a 1 or 2 km walk from the beach. The walk was along quiet sandy lanes lined by oak trees and pines. I remember my son Fergal, who was only about two years old back then, searching for fallen pine cones in the sand and then playing hide-and-seek among the tree trunks.
I remember the stillness, the sunshine, the blue sky and cotton-wool clouds that passed across it, and I remember the golden love that seeps through my brain and my heart whenever I mentally take myself back there in my memories.

I'd like to say a special thank you to all my wonderful musical friends that contributed their talent and skills playing and singing on this recording. Please see Credits for details.

lyrics

Oak tree lined avenue down to the coast
Barefoot pedestrians drifting like ghosts
As summer time wanes no libation of tears
Breakers are gleaming
We could be dreaming here

Blue as the sky
Deep as the sea
Golden the love you gave to me
My love
You always will be
My love

Pine cones and acorns we'll seek them then hide
Yesterday's footsteps erased by the tide
The nets I have mended
Torn sails you have sown
Time we were leaving
Always be dreaming here

Blue as the sky
Deep as the sea
Golden the love you gave to me
My love
You always will be
My love
