Great Southern Land (Original Mix)

Standing at the limit of an endless ocean Stranded like a runaway lost at sea City on a rainy day down in the harbor Watching as the gray clouds shadow the bay Looking everywhere 'cause I had to find you This is not the way that I remember it here Anyone will tell you it's a prisoner island Hidden in the summer for a million years Great Southern Land Great Southern Land So, you look into the land, it will tell you a story Story 'bout a journey ended long ago Listen to the motion of the wind in the mountains Maybe you can hear them talking like I do They're gonna betray you, they're gonna forget you Are you gonna let them take you over that way? Great Southern Land Great Southern Land You walk alone Like a primitive man And they make it work With sticks and bones I see their hungry eyes It's a hungry home Great Southern Land Great Southern Land Great Southern Land Great Southern Land Great Southern Land Great Southern Land Great Southern Land You walk alone Like a primitive man You walk alone With the ghost of time And they burned you black Yeah, they burned you black Great Southern Land
