Melbourne Blues
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I struggled with myself
And the thoughts I couldn't shake
Didn't want to be attached
To the thoughts inside my brain
But I stared down the face of adversity
And I can change it all, you see
Look to the Sun, I'm with you
Yeah, I wish you were here too
And we don't know
How good this world can be
Living in our own head, honey
Can get dark, don't you agree?
And we don't know
What it means to be happy
Keep on searching for the wrong things
And lose what we should keep
But look to the Sun, I'm with you
Yeah, it feels like Melbourne blues
It feels like Melbourne blues
And I appreciate you for all that you are
And just like gold, you don't rust
But I stared down the face of adversity
And I can change it all, you see
Look to the Sun, I'm with you
Yeah, I wish you were here too
And we don't know
How good this world can be
Living in our own head, honey
Can get dark, don't you agree?
And we don't know
What it means to be happy
Keep on searching for the wrong things
And lose what we should keep
But look to the Sun, I'm with you
Yeah, it feels like Melbourne blues
And if I could tell you something
And I'd tell the truth
My life was over, honey
The day I met you
We don't know
How good this world can be
Living in our own head, honey
Can get dark, don't you agree?
And we don't know
What it means to be happy
Keep on searching for the wrong things
And lose what we should keep
But look to the Sun, I'm with you
Yeah, it feels like Melbourne blues
It feels like Melbourne blues
It feels like Melbourne blues
