Melbourne

I'm going back to the future, each night when I dream I'm standing on steeples, I'm on Flinders St Yeah, I hear the Forum, the heat in the air You could cut it like cake, from Brunetti's I swear Yeah I wanna be here when they end the fight And the lights of my neighbours, go out for the night Their houses all empty, the sound of the streets My new favourite song, I haven't heard it in weeks Take me down to Fitzroy yeah, and teach me how to dance And when we move on to to Revs make sure, that I'm sorry in advance What I'd give to take you out to dinner It's been a long year, but I'm sure, Melbourne's gonna answer when I call What I'd give to take you on a bender Let the kinks all flatten out Melbourne's my town, and I miss her And I miss her, and I miss her I'd love nothing more, than to be standing behind The pole at the corner, to be wrapped round a pint For my shout at the bar, for my phone to just die For Monday regret, an overpriced cab ride To miss my tram, pay 5 bucks for a coffee Uncomfortable small talk, and wait like a zombie In queues and in lines, yeah I'm in lockdown I'm longing Melbourne, I'm sorry Take me on a joyride yeah, windows down to smell the flowers I wanna see The G light up this year, and sit on Punt Road for an hour What I'd give to take you out to dinner It's been a long year, but I'm sure, Melbourne's gonna answer when I call What I'd give to take you on a bender Let the kinks all flatten out Melbourne's my town, and I miss her And I know, just where I want go on the way home I wanna stand at Danny's Burgers in the cold Oh just when you thought we were done Melbourne's made a come-back What I'd give to take you out for dinner It's been a long year, but I'm sure, Melbourne's gonna answer when we call What I'd give to take you on a bender Let the kinks all flatten out Cause Melbourne's my town, and I miss her
