The story of a real young woman (a fan of the band) who begins her life in Australia before eventually settling in Canada. Some lyrics tell her story in a very straightforward manner while others present cryptic hints about her personality, surroundings, or upbringing.
[Intro]
Peta E. Godfrey
I'm a bonafide Aussie
Conceived on a conjugal
When my dad was not free
Then born down
In Bendigo
By Heather my mommy
My dad was released
When I was still a wee lass
And I cared for him lots
Yes he's my [?] pops
That's where I get my cheeky mischievous side
And if it's alright
I'd like to sing you my life
The hook goes
[Hook]
Whose pink and blossoming cherry tree?
Peta Godfrey
(Peta Godfrey
Peta Godfrey)
I was born to teach
I do humanities
Strictly public school
I think that should be the rule
I took a couple years off
Just to travel up north
Now I'm in Canada
With the man I love
Oh Weeman [?] Orchard tell me sweet and low
That your Peta Godfrey's what I am
Yes seem [?] an orchard repeat sweet and low
That your Peta Godfrey's found her man
I hope I'm not wrong
To wanna to sing you this song
It won't take long
Feel free to sing along
Chorus is
[Chorus]
Whose pink and blossoming cherry tree?
Peta Godfrey
(Peta Godfrey
Peta Godfrey)
From Victoria, Aussie
To Victoria, BC
I live free of a God
But Jesus glory to be seen
From poor Campbell's apostles
To these blossoms of cherry
In this city of gardens
And back south to the common heath E.O. [?]
And yours true
We'll be headin' home soon
I hope your heart's got room
To carry this tune
It goes
[Chorus]
Whose pink and blossoming cherry tree?
Peta Godfrey
(Peta Godfrey)
Whose pink and blossoming cherry tree?
Peta Godfrey
