Melbourne Town from Lonely Road by Michael Cafe

In a busy Melbourne Street she's standing all alone
it's so good to hear your voice coming down the phone
she's standing by the roadside and the traffic's humming by
she says she cant wait to see me but there's so many miles
she told me she sold cigarettes-money for the phone
I missed her on the first call but I only just got home
Melbourne's such a long way away
from the desert to St Kilda is 3 bloody days
and its so long since I've seen your face-but I know i'll be with you soon
she tells me how its raining -how unusual that is
like a storm over Alice Spring its her that I miss
Her money's running out
there's so much I wanna say
like i'd like to be with her on a rainy Melbourne day
Melbourne's such a long way away
from the desert to St Kilda is 3 bloody days
and its so long since I've seen your face-but I know i'll be with you soon
