My Hearts In Australia
My hearts in Australia
On the dusty hot plains
As the galahs chatter in in their pink fine regalia
And will for me forever remain
My heart will remain in the blue crystal water
On the white sandy beach
Swimming in the sun as free as I ought a
And paradise is always within reach
My heart sings with gladness
When I think of those balmy warm nights
Not to love Australia is just madness
When I think of the Great Southern Land bursting with light
When this my time is over on this earth
And my wandering is finally done
I will lie in Oz in restful sleep for what it’s worth
To be blessed as an Australian means heaven was won.
