The burning skies are never ending
across your red brush plains
and out where the dingo still is king
and eternity remains
there between the old and ancient
there's an oasis bright
your gentle children who have gone
are close to me tonight
In your singing land
in your singing land
come this way again
CHORUS
Under the spell of caterpillar dreaming
a new light shapes its form
along the river's naked banks
which are straining from the storm
on secret rock in thunder ocean
the tree of man grows clear
the woodlarks sing, the woodlarks dance
and the dawn is slipping near
across your red brush plains
and out where the dingo still is king
and eternity remains
there between the old and ancient
there's an oasis bright
your gentle children who have gone
are close to me tonight
In your singing land
in your singing land
come this way again
CHORUS
Under the spell of caterpillar dreaming
a new light shapes its form
along the river's naked banks
which are straining from the storm
on secret rock in thunder ocean
the tree of man grows clear
the woodlarks sing, the woodlarks dance
and the dawn is slipping near
