Australia

In the early 80's when i washed up on the shore

i could breathe a little more than i would realize

You can call me crazy, you can call me what you will

You could take the bitter pill, if it helps you sleep at nightIts a long long way my crooked friend

Such a long long way back

home

So close, yet we've come so far

So close, still we've got so farI can safely say we feel as safe as we like

Lest we forget those who die, I never will

Such a perfect Island, tucked away in the sea

The real land of the free, do you here meIts a long way home my crooked friend

But i do appreciate the time we spent

Its a long long way back home

Such a long long way back

homeSo close, yet we've come so far

So close, still we've got so far (x3)A long way home
