I'm half asleep, jetagged, weak
walking down the terminal
tryna' find my my feet
No more luggage to carry
just the city and me
taking insulin shots
because the journey's end's sweet
In this airport of drones we are each to our own
And like a once caged bird
back to the nest I have flown
Waiting for a cab ride seems like forever
just wana get home, just wana remember
It's been 12 long months since I left you Sydney
After missing several flights, themes the brakes of chronic drinking
But this loyalty deep in our hearts for each other
will survive through time like a baby and it's mother
I could sail these seas captain, but aye there's holes in that plan
coz this purple moon cocoon runs deeper than sea and land
Soul in transit for years, when out sprung a butterfly
my blue sky, Jamaican high, samurai air supply
Driving home in the cab I put the radio on
not really listening, just humming along
The taxi driver asks me "are you staying long in Sydney?"
I reply "I've met someone and I'm starting a life with them"
We can't afford champagne strawberries dipped in cocaine
but this terminal love is "mile high" insane
Walking down the tarmac, a million hearts in one hand
falling roses from above
Petals know "where love lands"
En route to to Perth, Melbourne, Broome, Long Island
Argentina, Philadelphia, New York, Harlem
Adelaide, Tasmania, Beirut London
Uluru, Canberra, San Juan Auckland
But I don't wanna travel this planet I once roamed
now I know my greatest "trip" is waiting here at home
All I wanna do is hang out with my boo
in our trackie pants, thongs; watch a dvd or two?
Fuck the planes, fuck the trains, fuck the automobiles man
fuck the world, we've got it all
In these streets, where we land
Walking in to dim tea lights, candles sparkling, enchanted, bright
Romance blossoming as we dine, in vintage chairs, sipping wine
Send me a postcard from France, I have it all here in one glass
I don't need to take a journey to the isle of Mikanos
I just use my neighbour's pool, invite you for a sizzle up
I could party like Montana in the streets of Sao Paulo
But I can run like a bull on my local cappucino
Staring for hours into my lover's eyes, I grow a rose...
Petals of love falling all around our feet, we don't oppose
This nature vapor or whatever the nomenclature?
A chemistry remedy, our hearts in floral alchemy
Nocturnal soul lil o quiy - your spirit floats inside of me
I could sail these seas captain, but aye there's holes in that plan
coz this purple moon cocoon runs deeper than sea and land
Soul in transit for years, when out sprung a butterfly
my blue sky, Jamaican high, samurai air supply
Driving home in the cab I put the radio on
not really listening, just humming along
The taxi driver asks me "are you staying long in Sydney?"
I reply "I've met someone, and I'm starting a life with them"
We can't afford champagne strawberries dipped in cocaine
but this terminal love cures all, it's mile high insane
Walking down the tarmac, a million hearts in one hand
falling roses from above
Petals know "where love lands"
En route to Perth, Melbourne, Broome, Long Island
Argentina, Philadelphia, New York, Harlem
Adelaide, Tasmania, Beirut London
Uluru, Canberra, San Juan Auckland
But I don't wanna travel this planet I once roamed
now I know my greatest "trip" is waiting here at home
All I wanna do is hang out with my boo
In our trackie pants, thongs; watch a dvd or two?
Fuck the planes, fuck the trains, fuck the automobiles man
fuck the world, we've got it all
In these streets, where we land
So now I'm back in Melbourne
And nothing much has changed
I used to call this state my home but now my energy is drained
Every day I'm away from harbour views and blue skies
Is salem's ghost whispering, "drink that fatal glass of wine"
But I have to stay strong although my body is weak
Because keeping the faith is the only thing that speaks
To the eternal complexity of nothingness in my soul
When there's nothing else to live for throw the petals and watch them fall
When there's nothing else to live for throw the petals and watch them fall
When there's nothing else to live for throw the petals and watch them fall
When there's nothing else to live for
*********************** throw
the
petals
and
watch
them
fall *************************
