You lie awake it’s hard to sleep
You lost the count so many sheep
The anxious menace from within
The exorcism must begin

So walk it off, walk it off

____Wake, awake for night is flying
____The watchmen on the heights are crying


The story’s old but all so true
The songlines stretch beneath of you
The woven fabric of the land
Constructed by the dreamtime’s hand

So walk it off, walk it off
Just walk it off, walk it off

____Wake, awake for night is flying
____The watchmen on the heights are crying

____And when you hear the watchmen singing
____All your heart with joy is springing


Miles and miles behind us miles and miles behind us

Feeling alone, by myself I go wandering
Missing the small things but catching the big

Formally bewildered, bemused and fumbling
I stop to secretly laugh at my feet

They're big and long and looking all wrong
There wide and tall so I think I'll fall...

Down.

To the ground to the ground to the

Stars tower above us
Strides make thoughts so wonderful
