lyrics

In Australia

I like to see the old familiar faces that I've got to know
And listen to recounts of what the dice have rolled us up today
recalling all the golden moments seem to make our faces glow
but I need another story and I think I'm getting called

In Australia it doesn't look so far
From the beaches to the ranges from the plains into the inner reach
In Australia it doesn't look so far
From the crocodiles,down to the bight and sailing to the tasman sea

I can feel adventure calling, calling me to follow my nose
I can feel the breeze already colors of the wind will lead the way
leading me to foreign places, meeting friendly people I won't know
and though they'd like to keep me here I know I just can't

[Chorus]

Far across the sea, I've heard some people think we're smaller than Europe
Excited by the island they'll gloss over vital details like the scale
perhaps it's just a coffee book or maybe cuz they're booking a tour
but if they knew how far it's really was I think they'd be blown

[Chorus]

Niq Reefman Sydney, Australia

Niq trumpets like a singer, keyboards like a bass player, sings like a narrator and ukuleles like an electric guitar - his musical performance is best described by picturing “Tim Minchin, flying a trumpet through a thunderstorm”.
He spreads songs of beauty, mirth, camaraderie, inspiration and action to a world that craves the social zest of an Irish pub and the hopeful melodies of nature. ... more
