lyrics

when we’d go fishing you’d drink green ginger wine
working on the tangles somewhere in your mind
drinking green ginger wine

you’d sit there staring out across the lake
i’d get the feeling your old heart was about to break
i’d watch you go
sinking down below the water line
nothing else could steal you away
like that green ginger wine

there was no use asking you and no use trying
man you used to get so mean if you ever did catch me crying
so i’d just bite my lip
and i’d pray for that line to slip and come to life
and you’d just sit there holding that cup
asking me to fill it up
full of green ginger wine

too much line between us now to ever put it right
funny how the days just fly away into the night
i’m drinking green ginger wine

find myself staring out across the lake
i get the feeling my old heart is about to break
nobody knows
where it is that i go in my mind
nothing else can steal me away
like that green ginger wine.

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.” –

Such a joyful collection of songs. Nothing like quintessential Melbourne alternative rock to lift the spirits. Listening during yet another lockdown transports me to a band room in my favourite pub. Thanks for the music lads- looking forward to seeing you for real when we get outta here. Jacqui L
