Australia

In the early 80's when i washed up on the shore
i could breathe a little more then i would realise
You can call me crazy, you can call me what you will
You could take the bitter pill, if it helps you sleep at night
Its a long long way my crooked friend
Such a long long way back home..........home.........hooooome
So close, yet we've come so far
So close, still we've got so far
I 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 hear me
Its 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 home..........home.........hooooome
So close, yet we've come so far
So close, still we've got so far
A long way home woooo ooooh
