lyrics

FLOWERING GUM (Warner)

Seattle seemed just far enough away
A hillside house with eaves built for the rain
When snow falls it still looks
Like something from a storybook

This year he thought it time to visit home
All his blood had drained out down the phone
Just to see the old place
To see the look on his mum’s face

(See her…)

Eyes open up, eyes open up, eyes open up
(Eyes open up) Up
Eyes open up, eyes open up, eyes open up
(Eyes open up)

Home had not been the place to leave his heart
The place his family tore itself apart
And Melbourne was a prison for
All the things that he imagined

(And his…)

Heart closes down, heart closes down, heart closes down
(Heart closes down) Down
Heart closes down, heart closes down, heart closes down
(Heart closes down)

Just to sit round the table with his brothers and his sister, at last
And to drag out all those records, and to sing those songs from Xmases past

The evening that he stepped out of the car
The light grabbed his shoulders and shook him hard
The sunlight electrified each slow step up he took up the drive

(And his…)

Heart opens up, heart opens up, heart opens up
(Heart opens up) Up
Heart opens up, heart opens up, heart opens up
(Heart opens up) Up

Heart opens up, heart opens up, heart opens up
(Heart opens up) Up
Heart opens up, heart opens up, heart opens up
(Heart opens up)

Opens up
Opens up
Opens up
Like a flowering gum
