It was a long drive over 200 k's of dirt
We watched the country change from slopes to plains
Stands of yellowbox
Turned to Mallee green and grey
And her beauty kept unfolding that day
Colin Buchanan Paradise 歌詞
She is cruel
She is tender
She'll leave you open-mouthed in wonder
One day paradise, another hell
You can fall in love
And never know her well
Some have come here
Falling for her charms
Not knowing, or ignoring what's at stake
Falling victims, to her powerful expanse
Defeating by a fleeting romance
And we rolled on
Thru little outback towns
Clinging to her hard the dusty ground
Never far from memorials that prove
At best we're only ever pa**ing through
She is cruel
She is tender
She'll leave you open-mouthed in wonder
One day paradise, another hell
You can fall in love
And never know her well
