Southern Sky Lyrics by Shannon Noll

Unbroken

2017

I wanna live, I wanna die, under the light of the great Southern Sky
I wanna run, straight through the night, chasing the stars with a heart open wide – under a great Southern Sky

There’s a song you can hear it playing in a country town; the anthem of the young and free that’s what I’m talking bout. Like flooding rains and overflows, desert plains and red dugouts walk abouts that take me home, a place that everybody knows

Ooohhh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oohh oh
In the state I’m in is on my mind
Ooohhh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oohh oh

In the place I live I’m so alive
Toniiiiiightttttt:

I wanna live, I wanna die under the light of the great Southern Sky
I wanna run, straight through the night chasing the stars with a heart open wide
High on a plainnnnn, in thunder and raiiiiiiiinnn
I wanna live, I wanna die, under the light of the great Southern Sky

There’s a spirit, can you feel it going in this country wide? From the burning sun in Arnhem land across the great divide
Children singing out aloud: we are one and we are proud, the future’s starting here and now, sing it all together now:

Ooohhh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oohh oh
In the place I live I’m so alive
Toniiiiiightttttt:

I wanna live, I wanna die under the light of the great Southern Sky
I wanna run, straight through the night, chasing the stars with a heart open wide
High on a plainnnnn in thunder and raiiiiiiiinnn
I wanna live, I wanna die under the light of the great Southern Sky

Ooohhh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oohh oh
Under the light of the great Southern Sky
Ooohhh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oohh oh
I wanna live, I wanna die, under the light of the great Southern Sky
I wanna run, straight through the night, chasing the stars with a heart open wide
High on a plainnnnn, in thunder and raiiiiiiiinnn
I wanna live, I wanna die, under the light of the great Southern Sky

Ooohhh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oohh oh
Under the light of the great Southern Sky
Ooohhh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oohh oh
Under the light of the great Southern Sky
Toniiiiiightttttt
