The Captain - Kasey Chambers

Released in 1999 this was Kasey Chambers debut album. It featured Cry Like A Baby, This Flower and The Captain. A good old South Australian girl how can you not love Kasey Chambers? I have seen Kasey live many times and she herself admits you either love or hate her whining country twang. I have to add the lyrics for This Flower as it's one of the most beautiful songs ever:

Well this flower is my soul

But it's not half of what I owe

I should give you every rose that I ever grew

But take this one here for a start

And you can keep it in your heart

I have everything I need because of you

Well if my life was long enough

to pack up everything I love

I would do just that and give it all to you

But it's impossible to pay

All the things that you gave away

So this flower I give will have to do

All the flowers growing wild

For ten thousand lonely miles

It's not near enough to give you what I should

So I will owe you for a while

Maybe longer than my life

I would give you all the world if I could
