This song is about an experience Daniel had when he was young (though, of course, Darren wrote the song). A couple was arguing at their house and the man ended up shooting himself in their backyard. For a long time after that the family would get the feeling that there was someone else in a room with them, and Daniel often saw the same bird. He made up the story that it was the man asking for forgiveness. And now we have this song. Later on, it came to also have meaning for the death of Darren's PA's father, who he always dedicated it to at shows (along with anyone who ever felt lost).
@Savagedstar83 Oh wow, so glad I found this. Man... I've been going through some major Savage Garden reminiscing lately but it's a bummer because it feels like so much has dried up, or I just can't find it anymore. I remember them release a track-by-track blurb or paragraph on the website years and years ago. I wonder if anyone's collected or held onto any of this stuff.
