Shipyards Of New Zealand

Thought one day i'd make my fortune

Like the ancient cavalcades

From the shipyards of new zealand

Chasing history i left home

Moving west into the sunset

Became the sunset of our lives

I was factory made and settled

Safe from storm and broken earth



There's so much to do every day

Dreams keep on disappearing

We cling to the walls of our heart

Keeps us from coming undone



Now danger lurks behind the spreader

And charlton heston casts the first stone

User interference birthmarks

Clever, not very wise



Let the lamplights keep on shining now

While those searchlights in skies they are turning

We climb to the top of the heap

I wish i could fly



I can't get lost

I can't get confused

Something's misplaced

Maybe for good



(moginie/garrett)
