Maybe there is some correlation to be made with Peter Weir's "Picnic at Hanging Rock," wherein a group of schoolgirls disappear into the Australian bush during a picnic, presumably the result of some kind of powerful natural magic. The idea of two lovers trying to absorb themselves into the landscape to escape their problems is particularly appealing to me.

I really like the connection to Picnic at Hanging Rock. I don’t know that is what the song is about, but I kind of want it to be.
