I Still Call Australia Home

Music & Lyrics: Peter Allan (1980)

 

I've been to cities that never close down

From New York to Rome and old London town

But no matter how far or how wide I roam

I still call Australia home

 

I'm always travelling, I love being free

And so I keep leaving the sun and the sea

But my heart lies waiting over the phone

I still call Australia home

 

Yeah

 

All the sons and daughters spinning 'round the world

Away from their family and friends

But as the world gets older and colder

It's good to know where your journey ends

 

And someday we'll all be together once more

When all of the ships come back to the shore

I'll realize something I've always known

I still call Australia home

 

But no matter how far or wide I roam

I still call Australia,

I still call Australia,

I still call Australia home

 

But no matter how far or wide I roam

I still call Australia,

I still call Australia,

I still call Australia home
