Christine Lavin - Rushcutter's Bay Lyrics
The boats are bobbing on Rushcutters BayThe joggers are jogging their lives awayMy knees give out before I run a quarter KI'm not an athletic girlThe Sydney sun is heating up the groundThe cricket batsman hits the ball then he runs aroundI can't believe it's November, I'm upside downThe other side of the worldBut I still dream about him every nightI still dream about him every nightHe comes to me when I turn out the lightI still dream about himAustrailian boys know how to toss back a beerThe Aussie girls all want to get away from hereIt's a universal problem, so far and so nearI see it everywhere I goIt's a battle of the sexes, it's a battle of willsIt's a push, it's a pull, it's a bittersweet pillTen thousand miles away and my heart beats stillFor a man I may never knowBut I still dream about him every nightI still dream about him every nightHe comes to me when I turn out the lightI still dream about himCrossing the street gives me a terrible frightI look right, I look left, I look left, I look rightIt's a mirror image, it's day for nightI hesitate, I runI am a constant stranger, I'm a long lost-friendRemind me of your name should we meet againIn a darkened alley up around the bendOr in the Sydney sun.And I still dream about him every nightI still dream about him every nightHe comes to me when I turn out the lightI still dream about himThe boats are bobbing on Rushcutters BayThe joggers are jogging their lives awayMy knees give out, I can't run a quarter KI'm still not an athletic girl-ac
