You can al-most touch, the o-cean, 6 6 -6 6 6 6 6 6 Shim-mer-ing in the dis-tant haze, 7 7 7 7 -7 7 -6 6 As you stand there, on the moun-tain, -6 -6 -6 6 -5 5 -4 On the lov-li-est, of days, 4 5 6 6 5 -4 4 'Round half the world, you've drift-ed, -4 -6 -6 -6 -7 7 Left no wild oats un-sown, 8 -8 8 -8 8 -8 7 But now your view, has shift-ed, -8 8 -9 8 -8 7 7 And you think you've, just come home. And you're drown-ing, in the sun-shine, As it pours down, from the skies, And there's some-thing, stir-ring, in your heart, Bright colours, fill your eyes. As from here, the far hor-i-zon, Your beauty, does un-fold, And oh you look, so love-ly, Dressed in, your green and gold. To the home-less and the hung-ry, May we al-ways, o-pen doors, May the rest-less and the wear-y, Find safe har-bour, on our shores, May she al-ways, be our dream-time place, Our spirits, glad re-lease, May she al-ways be, our shel-ter, May we al-ways, live in peace.
