Story Behind The Song
after 9 months on the road i came home to adelaide, australia, walked barefoot into my backyard in time to see the sunset throwing a hot evening light against a big gum tree that hangs over my house. in the dry, dusty heat i felt instantly home again and all that represents to me came flooding into this song in about 5 minutes. peace.

Lyrics
this is the place where i find peace
this is the place where i find peace
this is the place where i find all things are equal and
this is the place where i find peace
this is the place where i find strength
this is the place where i find strength
this is the place where i find courage immeasurable
this is the place where i find strength
where the salt meets the sand
where the drifting tide lands
where its soft in the stretch of your hand
where the time passes slow
and the rosellas know that its warm in the glow of the land
this is where i find peace
this is the place where i find you
this is the place where i find you
this is the place where i find hope meets fulfillment and
this is the place where i find you
where the salt meets the sand
and the drifting tide lands
where its soft in the stretch of your hand
where the time passes slow
and the rosellas know that its warm in the glow of the land
where this wide open space gives so much to the place
and the breath in me reaches right in
where my feet in the earth are my place - are my birth
and it brings me back home once again
this is where i find peace
this is where i find peace
