about

Recorded live for the DVD filmed on one 'unforgettable night' in February at Lizottes, Kincumber in 2009.

lyrics

She Flew Away
(Cardier)

She flew away up to the moon -
She just up and left one afternoon -
Turned the tv on loud as it could get
After she set fire to the kitchenette -
She clicked her heels as she left the ground
And she saw her dreams scattered all around.

And they wondered why just what it was
That made her try to touch the stars -
She flew away up to the moon -
She just up and left one afternoon.

She wore a gown of baby blue
And her hair teased up and her high-heel shoes -
Left the photographs lying where they fell -
Left the casserole on the wall as well.

And they wondered why as they shook their heads -
Why she would take off the way she did -
She flew away with a biscuit tin -
The one she kept her secrets in.

And she laughed aloud as she landed there -
And she danced all night, she was light as air -
And she sang a song about a little girl
Who never ever had a worry in the world.

And they wondered why just what it was
That made her try to touch the stars -
She flew away up to the moon -
She just up and left one afternoon.

Glenn Cardier Sydney, Australia

Post 2000, Glenn Cardier’s re-emergence as a songwriter/performer of real distinction has been nothing short of extraordinary. In typical single-minded fashion, he writes, performs and produces his music. Onstage, there are the trademark flashes of dark humour and thumping rockabilly/blues. But underlying it all are the songs. Happy/sad songs. Sweet/crazy songs. Cardier songs. CDs on the website. ... more
