Bellingen Says Goodnight.

'Bellingen Says Goodnight' was inspired by seeing the Dorrigo Mountains' 'Old Man Dreaming', or 'Ngali', as I turned off the Pacific Highway towards my hometown of Bellingen on Gumbaynggirr country.

Old dairy farms line the old Waterfall Way (Trunkroad 76) as you roll into Fernmount.

The river ambles gently by and sub tropical humidity clings to you in summer.

Flying foxes parade through the evening sky in search for fruit and the old Federal Hotel

comes to life at night with locals and travellers.

Bellingen Says Goodnight lyrics

written by Kylie Adams-Collier.

Riding on the highway

On a summer's day

I'm going home

The trees pass by me

And rivers

And mountains roads

In a valley far away

On a beautiful summer's day

And I'm goiong home

The cattle are calling

NIght is falling

The sun waves goodbye

And Bellingen says goodnight

Goodnight to the river's lullaby

The bats are out tonight

The hotel lights are on

And I'm going home.
