lyrics

I looked into
I looked at your face
Oh your face
Where beauty has its place
Far away from here
Taken from your touch
To a land thats disappeared
Crying out for you

Suddenly I dreamed
And there I saw your eyes
Sparkling and alive
Taken to a place
None of them came from
So they just walk along
And their step will never falter
While they don't understand

You and what it is to be
From the endless plain and dream
Of Australia

Tell me what it is
They were all taken away
Upon this country lay
A ghost land it will stay
While shadows dance and play
In the moonlight they're arrayed
Midnight corrobboree

And they don't understand
You and what it is to be
From the endless plain and dream
Of Australia

Haunted they remain
Wild and insane
In the gaol of the mind
Invisible to the blind
But there on King's Cross street
'Mongst the detritus you sleep
A pawn in Darwin's game

And they don't understand
You and what it is to be
From the endless plain and dream
Of Australia
