Dana Lyons Half A Planet Away
And I'm sitting in the shade of gum trees
And I look and find myself alone
On the banks of a desert river
Half a planet away from home
In the water I see reflections
Of a sunburnt and tired face
In the eyes I see recollections
But the wind comes across the water
And I look and find myself alone
My feet dangling in a desert river
Half a planet away from home
But the water is cool and soothing
Like your hands running through my hair
Like the current of the river moving
So I dive into the muddy watеrs
And I look and find myself alone
Floating downstream on a dеsert river
Half a planet away from home
But the river will take me somewhere
And I dream it brings me to you
And we float for awhile together
But the current of the river changes
And I look and find myself alone
Floating downstream on a desert river
Half a planet away from home
But I know that I'll meet you somewhere
As the river flows to the sea
Once again we will float together
Till the current of the river changes
And I look and find myself alone
On the banks of a desert river
Half a planet away from home
Half a planet away from home
Half a planet away
