Being There

For low voice and piano, c.9'45.  Intermediate level of difficulty
Lyrics by Jonathan Green

Jonathan Green’s poignant and honest text highlights the difficulty modern Australians face. They will never understand that the people who once lived in this place were “integral, without distinction from all the life and soil and rock, water and space that surrounded them. The old people were this place and this place was them.” The rest of us “will always be a stranger here, someone passing through, never forming a part of this greater presence.”
