Take Me Away
Australian state with a foreign fashion
Forgotten days of the lucky nation
Like a child that's been left in the cold
Fallen tears and faded photographs
Mark the start of the settler's chance
And brick-walled views mark the contract sold
Take me away
To another time, to another place
Take me away
I'm losing my mind, I'm losing my face
Shoulda said goodbye
Long ago
Blazing smokestacks, the nightshift's sunrise
Before the day has materialised
Got my hard hat, my boots, I've got my pride
The foreman serves a foreign notice
The corporate has no need for us
Slowly, I shovel my feelings aside
Take me away
To another time, to another place
Take me away
I'm losing my mind, I'm losing my face
Shoulda said goodbye
Long ago
So I s'pose I best be leavin' now
These things, they happen. Anyhow
I've lost all there is to lose
Except perhaps my life
Take me away
To another time, to another place
Take me away
I'm losing my mind, I'm losing my face
Shoulda said goodbye
Long ago
(Goodbye)
