about

The last track 'Ginger Beer' conjures up a bittersweet reverie "And in your dreams we'll meet again". It tells the story of a young man who suddenly passes away, and what he would say to his mother if he could. This is a deeply personal song that Kate wrote for her own mother, to try and bring some peace after the sudden loss of her brother in a tragic accident.

lyrics

And in your dreams we’ll meet again
I’m by your side when you feel broken
And when you smile my spirit's woken
And keep on singing with the sun

Only we will understand
Only we will understand
You saw the boy under the man
You saw the boy under the man

You were the first to hold my hand
And always there when I felt broken
I’m not in form I am in soul
This special bond will never go

Only we will understand
Only we will understand
You saw the boy under the man
You saw the boy under the man

[INSTRUMENTAL]

Remember me when music plays
Those happy days we spent together
Our parting was so very sudden.
But I will meet you at the door

Only we will understand
Only we will understand
You saw the boy under the man
You saw the boy under the man
