Christine Anu - My Island Home lyrics

rate me

I come from the salt water people

We always lived by the sea

They say home is where you find it

Will this place ever satisfy me?

My Island home

My Island Home

My Island home is waiting for me (x2)

Six years I have lived in the desert

and every night I dreamt of the sea

Now I'm down here living in the city

with all of my family

My Island home

My Island Home

My Island home is waiting for me (x2)

(bridge)

In the evening the dry wind blows

from the hills and across the plains

I close my eyes and I'm standing on a boat on the sea again

And I'm holding that long fishing line/turtle spear

and I feel that I'm close now

to where it must be

My Island home is waiting for me

My home is Australia

We are a land bound by sea

And though I may travel far across the ocean

It will never forget me

My Island home

My Island home

My Island home is waiting for me (x2)

(Outro)

My Island home, my island home, my island home, my island home.
