about

The great romance of a honeymoon in France, perhaps even more romantic from an Antipodean perspective. But what about the investment in such romance when the realisation dawns that this was mistake. Big stakes, big losses.

lyrics

SILENT DESPAIR

She went walking on a winter morning
On her honeymoon in France
Walking lonely Annie, walking home there Annie?
She knew the marriage wouldn't last
Oh Annie, what are you doing?
Oh Annie, what are you proving?
Oh Annie, where are you heading to?
On a winter morning on your honeymoon?
The cliffs of Calais are surely no place for you?
Oh Annie, oh Annie
Annie why?

He was leaving on a winter evening
On a business trip to France
Waiting for the ferry, no time to be merry
He didn't want another glass
He found her, where the path led
Waves pounded, opened up her head
He found her, on the rocks dead
The eerie sound of his cry
The cliffs of Calais were surely no place to die
Oh Annie, oh Annie
Annie why?
The cliffs of Calais were surely no place to die
The cliffs of Calais were surely no place to die
