Sing Me A Story

I'm there in the ochre scratched deep in the wall
I'm the line that lays upon sleepers stretching till dawn
And I am the echo of an axe on the eucalypt breeze
And I'm there in the hull of a tall ship high upon seas

Sing me a story one that I can believe
Take me to places that I couldn't dream of
Open my eyes
Won't you teach me the lessons that I need to learn
Unlock my heart and just let it all burn
Awaken the spirit in me, so I can believe
Won't you sing up my country, sing it for me

I'm there in the haze and the heat, I'm the ash in the eye
I'm the wail of a widow that's leaving 'cause the stock have all died
I am the prayer of Eureka, as he cracks through the seam
I am the distance and I am the time that goes way beyond dreams

Sing me a story one that I can believe
Take me to places that I couldn't dream of
Open my eyes
Teach me the lessons that I need to learn
Unlock my heart and just let it all burn
Awaken the spirit in me so I can believe
Won't you sing me a story, sing it for me

I am the spear that's been thrown in defiance
I am the blood in the ANZAC alliance
If you seek you will find the secret to what we can be
Our destiny is within our history

Sing me a story one that I can believe
Take me to places that I couldn't dream of
Open my eyes
Won't you teach me the lessons that I need to learn
Unlock my heart and just let it all burn
Awaken the spirit in me, so I can believe
Won't you sing me a story, sing it for me

Sing it for me
Sing it for me
La da da da
Sing it for me
Oh won't you sing me a story, sing it for me
