about

This track is a harp, accordion, and vocal lament dedicated to the koala and its fading place in the fragile Australian ecosystem. The koala is in serious danger of becoming extinct unless we take immediate action to save our dearly loved Australian icon. Therefore, I am donating 70% of the purchase price of each and every download of Koala to Friends Of The Koala.org to support their work in rescue, rehabilitation, and koala food tree plantations.

Please help me save our koala.

lyrics

Koala

When I long for greater wisdom
Or my soul seeks gentle peace
When the path of pure contentment
seems too far away to reach

I go to lulling woodland places
Where the gum tree elders meet
To find a teacher who can guide me
Who will never judge or preach

Koala is witness
Koala is insight
Koala is patience
Koala is stillness

When my heart needs restoration
Or my clock wants time to smile
When the grip of expectation
makes my life feel like a trial

To lulling woodlands I must go
But they're not where they used to grow
Gone is the teacher who can help me
Find the calm i long to know

koala was witness
Koala was insight
koala was patience
Koala was stillness

Koala is silent

Lyrics- Scott Rawstorne
