She never knew how cold it gets

Alone in a city she never will forget

As tears seem to fall like lead

Into his silent and empty bed

They were never meant to be alone

In two cities they never could call home

And all his letters she holds to her breast

So his words she could breathe into herself

And they said

We could go live in a city down under

Where all the sun shines and people are good

And the melodies flow in rainbows of colors

And we'll dance in the silvery light of the moon

We could be drinking the light of the moon

Of the moon

Without him her days are dark

And she can't see the sun rise or even the stars

He stares into her picture frame

Remembering her laughing while running in the rain

And he regrets the things he said

That broke her down the day that she left

But life's too precious to let it slip away

And now her message is clear as a bell

And it says

We could go live in a city down under

Where all the sun shines and people are good

And the melodies flow in rainbows of colors

And we'll dance in the silvery light of the moon

We could be drinking the light of the moon

Of the moon

And it says

We could go live in a city down under

Where all the sun shines and people are good

And the melodies flow in rainbows of colors

And we'll dance in the silvery light of the moon

We could be drinking the light

We could go live in a city down under

Where all the sun shines and people are good

And the melodies flow in rainbows of colors

And we'll dance in the silvery light of the moon

We could be drinking the light of the moon

Of the moon
