Melbourne
It's warm warm day in the summer
We got the day all to ourselves
Me and my friends we've been working on our projects
We're working for ourselves
We want some people to listen
Coz we got something to say
But we can't keep up this struggle
When will we find the way?
I got a job to do now
I got a place to be
What's gonna get me through?
What's gonna set me free?
I want to believe that
There's something out there for me
Got some shoes to fill
I got some places to be
Melbourne town
Give me a reason to stay
Give me a reason to play my songs
I've waited so long for the time to belong
How long must we keep up this fight for our songs to ignite and our words to take flight?
I pray everyday for the sandman to sweep me away to a different place oh yeah
It feels like going against the grain until you find a new way
All I know is that I'll keep on doing it, pushing through it yeah, pushing pushing
I got a job to do
I got a place to be
What's gonna get me through?
What's gonna set me free?
I want to believe that
There's something out there for me
Got some shoes to fill
I got some places to be
Melbourne town
Give me a reason to stay
Give me a reason to play my songs
I've waited so long for the time to belong
And the world is falling around me but
Everybody wins sometimes
Everybody wins sometimes
I just keep on struggling through the dark
But everybody wins sometimes
Everybody wins sometimes
No one's coming to save me oh
But everybody wins sometimes
Everybody wins sometimes
I'll just keep on making my melodies
Melbourne town
Give me a reason to stay
Give me a reason to play my songs
I've waited so long for the time to belong
Melbourne town
Give me a reason to stay
Give me a reason to play my songs
I've waited so long for the time to belong
