lyrics

LYDIARD STREET

What am I doing here?
It wasn’t in the script
It wasn’t in the book
Not that I was reading it

What am I doing here?
Walking down Lydiard street
Bumping into roadsigns
Tripping on my feet…

Down Ballarat,
Ballarat

I want to see a movie
I’m looking to escape
But they don’t make movies
For gown ups these days

So I cross over to the gallery
Feel my head’s caught in a spin
I think I need a shot of caffeine
Just so I can take it in…

Down Ballarat
Ballarat

I met a man called Julian
Owns a 2nd hand book store
After many years of travelling
Says he’s found what he’s looking for

He points me to the east side
And I can hear the violins
Playing on the bandstand
It’s the first day of Spring…

Down Ballarat
Ballarat
