The Men They Couldn't Hang - Australia lyrics

Now you're off in Australia Have you opened new doors We said keep in touch but we don't write so much Have we nothing to say anymore There were tears at the airport There were jokes and goodbyes We said it is clear, just the whiskey and beer Gone to water our eyes Then you're gone and I'm thinking Would I see you again I felt part of me follow you over sea I'd lost more than a friend Does the food taste so good there Does the air smell so sweet Is there greener gra** Water clear as gla** Does your life feel complete They say the world's getting smaller But at the moment we seem worlds apart It could have been different It could have been me That made the new start Now you're off in Australia Now you've opened that door We said keep in touch but we don't write so much Have we nothing to say anymore
