   Standing at the limit of an endless ocean
  stranded like a runaway, lost at sea
  city on a rainy day down in the harbour
  watching as the grey clouds shadow the bay
  looking everywhere 'cause I had to find you
  this is not the way that i remember it here
  anyone will tell you its a prisoner island
  hidden in the summer for a million years
  Great Southern Land, burned you black
  so you look into the land and it will tell you a story
  story 'bout a journey ended long ago
  if you listen to the motion of the wind in the mountains
  maybe you can hear them talking like I do
  ". . they're gonna betray, they're gonna forget you
  are you gonna let them take you over this way . ."
  Great Southern Land, Great Southern Land
  you walk alone like a primitive man
  and they make it work with sticks and bones
  see their hungry eyes, its a hungry home
  I hear the sound of the stranger's voices
  I see their hungry eyes, their hungry eyes
  Great Southern Land, Great Southern Land
  they burned you black, black against the ground
  Great Southern Land, in the sleeping sun
  you walk alone with the ghost of time
  they burned you black, black against the ground
  and they make it work with rocks and sand
  I hear the sound of the stanger's voices
  I see their hungry eyes, their hungry eyes
  Great Southern Land, Great Southern Land
  you walk alone, like a primitive man
  you walk alone with the ghost of time
  and they burned you black
  yeah, they burned you black
  Great Southern Land
