Great Southern Land - Icehouse[00:00:00]
Written by:Iva Davies[00:00:01]
Standing at the limit of an endless ocean[00:00:32]
Stranded like a runaway lost at sea[00:00:36]
City on a rainy day down in the harbor[00:00:40]
Watching as the gray clouds shadow the bay[00:00:44]
Looking everywhere 'cause I had to find you[00:00:48]
This is not the way that I remember it here[00:00:52]
Anyone will tell you it's a prisoner island[00:00:56]
Hidden in the summer for a million years[00:01:00]
Great Southern Land[00:01:03]
Burned you black[00:01:12]
So you look into the land it will tell you a story[00:01:19]
Story about a journey ended long ago[00:01:24]
Listen to the motion of the wind in the mountains[00:01:28]
Maybe you can hear them talking like I do[00:01:32]
They're gonna betray you they're gonna forget you[00:01:35]
Are you gonna let them take you over that way[00:01:39]
Great Southern Land[00:01:43]
Great Southern Land[00:01:47]
You walk alone[00:01:51]
Like a primitive man[00:01:55]
And they make it work[00:01:59]
With sticks and bones[00:02:03]
See their hungry eyes[00:02:07]
It's a hungry home[00:02:11]
I hear the sound[00:02:17]
Of the strangers' voices[00:02:21]
I see their hungry eyes[00:02:25]
Their hungry eyes[00:02:29]
Great Southern Land[00:02:31]
Great Southern Land[00:02:35]
They burned you black[00:02:39]
Black against the ground[00:02:43]
Standing at the limit of an endless ocean[00:02:48]
Stranded like a runaway lost at sea[00:02:52]
City on a rainy day down in the harbor[00:02:55]
Watching as the gray clouds shadow the bay[00:02:59]
Looking everywhere I had to find you[00:03:04]
This is not the way that I remember it here[00:03:07]
Anyone will tell you it's a prisoner island[00:03:11]
Hidden in the summer for a million years[00:03:15]
Great Southern Land[00:03:19]
In the sleeping sun[00:03:23]
You walk alone[00:03:27]
With the ghost of time[00:03:31]
Well they burned you black[00:03:35]
Black against the ground[00:03:39]
And they make it work[00:03:43]
With rocks and sand[00:03:47]
I hear the sound[00:03:53]
Of the strangers' voices[00:03:57]
I see their hungry eyes[00:04:01]
Their hungry eyes[00:04:05]
Great Southern Land[00:04:07]
Great Southern Land[00:04:11]
You walk alone[00:04:15]
Like a primitive man[00:04:19]
You walk alone[00:04:23]
With the ghost of time[00:04:27]
And they burned you black[00:04:31]
Yeah they burned you black[00:04:35]
Great Southern Land[00:04:39]
Great Southern Land[00:04:47]
Great Southern Land[00:04:55]
Great Southern Land[00:05:03]
