Birdgirl One could not tire of Luke Sinclair's voice. I do love this honest, poetic song. It is about being homesick for family and loved ones:

"they say I got my mothers heart
they say I got my father’s fire
in my mind I draw a line straight home
going right across the sky

i curse the great world atlas
i curse the shining sea
and all that equals the distance
between them and me".

lyrics

i can’t get no rest here
i move with my head down
lord knows that i done my best here
and i tried not to let you down

but there’s a kind of emptiness here
it takes more than what i got
it’s bigger than the land i’m standing on
bigger than the oceans that I crossed

i curse the great world atlas
i curse the shining sea
and all that equals the distance
between you and me

I had love like a mountain
I had love to spare
12 months 11 days & 3 hours but who’s counting
now the miles and the minutes are all we share

i curse the great world atlas
i curse the shining sea
and all that equals the distance
between you and me

they say I got my mothers heart
they say I got my father’s fire
in my mind I draw a line straight home
going right across the sky

i curse the great world atlas
i curse the shining sea
and all that equals the distance
between them and me

about

Raised By Eagles Melbourne, Australia

“Raised By Eagles’ songs are the kind you fall in love with at the first listen and then endlessly trawl bars and venues across Melbourne to be near again. This is no crush. This is a great, enduring romance.” –
