I've been to cities that never close down |
|
from New York to Rio and old London town, |
|
but no matter how far or how wide I roam |
|
I still call Australia home. |
|
I'm always traveling, I love being free, |
|
and so I keep leaving the sun and the sea, |
|
but my heart lies waiting over the foam. |
|
I still call Australia home. |
|
But someday we'll all be together once more |
|
when all of the ships come back to the shore. |
|
Then I realise something I've always known. |
|
I still call Australia home. |
|
All the sons and daughters spinning 'round the world, |
|
away from their family and friends, |
|
but as the world gets older and colder, |
|
it's good to know where your journey ends. |
|
But someday we'll all be together once more |
|
when all of the ships come back to the shore. |
|
Then I realise something I've always known. |
|
I still call Australia home. |
