HOLD ON TO ME

         Music by Joe Camilleri
         Lyrics by Nick Smith

We were live on arrival
Safe home at last
No cannon fire dockside
No flags half-mast

We were sold out for silver
And a string of black pearls
On the loneliest island
At the edge of the world

Chorus:

   Like destiny's children
   Souls lost at sea
   No room on the life boat
   You can hold on to me

Now the voyage is over
We're back on dry land
In our eyes are the stories
The rope and the brand

   Chorus
