Solid Rock Lyrics by Goanna

Spirit of Place

0

[Yidaki/Didgeridoo Intro]

[Verse 1]
Out here nothin' changes, not in a hurry anyway
You can feel the endlessness, with the comin' of the light o' day

[Bridge 1]
We're talkin' 'bout a chosen place
You wanna sell it in a marketplace?

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Well
Well just a minute now

[Chorus 1]
You're standin' on solid rock
You're standin' on sacred ground
You're livin' on borrowed time
And the winds of change
Are blowin' down the line

[Post-Chorus]
Right down the line

[Verse 2]
Well, round about the dawn of time
The dreamin' all began
The crowd of people came
Well, they were lookin' for their promised land

[Bridge 2]
We're runnin' from the heart o' darkness
And searchin' for the heart o' light

[Pre-Chorus 2]
But it was their paradise

[Chorus 2]
Well, they were standin' on solid rock
They're standin' on sacred ground
They're livin' on borrowed time
And the winds of change
Were blowing cold that night, oh

[Solos]

No!

[Guitar solo]

[Verse 3]
Well, they were standin' on the shore one day
They saw the white sails in the sun
It wasn't long before they felt the sting
White man, white law, white gun

[Bridge 3]
Don't tell me that it's justified
'Cause somewhere, well, someone lied

[Pre-Chorus 3]
Yeah well, someone lied
Someone lied
A genocide
Well, someone lied, oh, now

[Chorus 1]
And now you're standin' on solid rock
You're standin' on sacred ground
You're livin' on borrowed time
And the winds of change
Are blowin' down the line

[Chorus 1]
The solid rock
You're standin' on sacred ground
You're livin' on borrowed time
And the winds of change
Are blowin' down the line

[Chorus 1]
The solid rock
You're standin' on sacred ground
You're livin' on borrowed time
And the winds of change
Are blowin' down the line

[Outro]
No, oh, oh no!
No, oh!
