tim finn - songline lyrics
you’ve gotta be a man
straight out from the 18th century
you tried to prove that the world was flat
when you turned your back on me
a good walker leaves no tracks
and is crystal in his gaze
i know the face that’s looking down
from a town back in a day
we come from a long line
part of a songline
let us sing out on the wire
let it shiver in the trees
out across the open sp+ce
is where the music sets you free
help me spread the message, baby
that’s inside of you and me
we come from a long line
part of a songline
all those things
that i left behind
all those things
that i left behind
they were never mine
found(?) a trace of everything
on the bank that the river pierced
and like a heavenly body, baby
let it shine, come show your bliss
you come from a long line
i see it in your own eyes
you’re part of your own time
i’m part of your songline
all those things that i left behind
all those things that i left behind
all from a songline
