|
I'll plant a row |
|
Of eucalyptus |
|
And they will grow |
|
Up to protect us |
|
They'll block the rain, oh |
|
With their salty leaves |
|
They'll keep the wind oh |
|
From our short short sleeves |
|
Well if he comes |
|
And tries to find us |
|
We'll just grab hold |
|
Branches above us |
|
And we'll sit up here |
|
We will wait a year |
|
We'll come back, oh |
|
We'll come back when the coast is clear |
|
Oh no.. oh no, oh no, oh no, oh no |
|
It's a row, (a row), a row |
|
A row of stumps surrounding us |
|
It's bright and cold and lonesome |
|
We must have cut them down in our sleep |
|
In our sleep we must have cut down all the trees |
|
Oh no, oh no, oh no, oh no, oh no |
|
And now the wind, it hits our sleeves |
|
It's freezing we got colder |
|
Older, we got older |
|
Without those trunks surrounding us |
|
I can see for miles tonight |
|
And I think I see a distant light |
|
And I need to find out what those are |
|
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye |
|
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye |
|
Sorry about the stumps |
|
Sorry about the stumps |
|
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye |
|
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye |
|
You're sitting here on bloody knees |
|
Where once were eucalyptus trees |
|
Goodbye |
|
Goodbye |
|
Goodbye |
|
See you in the night |
|
Goodbye |
|
Goodbye |
|
Goodbye |
|
See you in the night |
|
Oh no, oh no, oh no, oh no, oh no |
