Lyrics

Thought one day I'd make my fortune Like the ancient cavalcades From the shipyards of New Zealand Chasing history I left home Moving west into the sunset Became the sunset of our lives I was factory made and settled Safe from storm and broken earth There's so much to do every day Dreams keep on disappearing We cling to the walls of our heart Keeps us from coming undone Now danger lurks behind the spreader And Charlton Heston casts the first stone User interference birthmarks Clever, not very wise Let the lamplights keep on shining now While those searchlights in skies they are turning We climb to the top of the heap I wish I could fly I can't get lost I can't get confused Something's misplaced Maybe for good
