Nullarbor song

de Kasey Chambers

When the fire burns out here It's brighter than the city lights Warmer than a heart of gold The dingles howl just to break the silence The sun comes up just to break the cold Last night I woke with the stars looking back at me Swallowing the sky I felt no anger I felt no shame I felt no reason to cry If I'm not here in the morning I'll cry a river of tears I'll learn to live in a new town But my heart is staying here When it's quiet out here A hundred miles away You can hear the train on the line The whistle blows just to break the silence I wave just to break the time I close my eyes I think of running water I think of running away But the fire's burned to ashes And it's darker than before But I can see as clear as day If I'm not here in the morning I'll cry a river of tears I'll learn to live in a new town But my heart is staying here I'll learn to live in a new town But my heart is staying here
