about

This track was composed when Marguerite underwent radiation therapy at Blue Gum Lodge in Sydney 2004.

lyrics

Not There

Hey you
how can you call this living?
How can you sleep at night?
when you're lying with the enemy.
Your silence
hangs over us like a shadow
And though I follow the course of the stars
I cannot see the light
No matter what the summit offers
when you get to the top
You find that you're not quite there.

Not there
Not there
Not there
Not there
You're not there

Did you
really believe it so simple
that a kiss would make it alright
would wipe the slate clean.
No matter whatever I have to offer you'
When it comes to the bottom line
You're not quite there

Not there
Not there
Not there
Not there
You're not there

Sometimes words are not the answer
A gesture is all that it takes
to get me back from the storm
Did you
really believe it so simple
that a kiss could make it alright
but you're not there.

Not there
Not there
Not there
Not there
You're not there
