Desert Dreaming

It's a call that we keep hearing each year.

An echo that won’t ever stop.

It's a call that we keep on hearing each year.

An echo that won’t ever stop.

It’s sheer electricity and anticipation.

To get out into the great beyond.

Its outback adventures, remote destinations.

It’s river crossings and boab trees.

A photo worthy drive down a long dirt track.

Flying in small planes over tropical homelands.

Hearing songs sung in ancient languages.

Swimming blue oceans and fishing brown rivers.

Stomping the sand to the rhythm of clap sticks.

Feeling the rumble of a didgereedoo.

The smile of a kid who masters a chord.

Of a girl who plays her first song.

The pride as the band takes a bow from the stage.

The roar of a choir of dingoes.

Campfire embers crackling into the night sky.

Sing-alongs, cook-ups and laughs over coffee.

The coming back, showing and sharing it all.

That’s my reason, my why and my calling. 

IFO 2025, I can't wait!
