Lyrics Xavier Rudd – Storm Boy

When will you learn that the more you take
Means the less that you have at the end of the day
Stillness of the mind is so hard to embrace
Freedom of the heart is what we crave

And now everybody smiles in the setting sun
And sighs with contentment when the day is done
Hand in hand with the one you love
Feeling blessed by the magic of the moon above
And we sing
Sha la la la la la la la
We’re just living in this beautiful world
Sha la la la la la la la
We’re just living in this beautiful world

It’s time for fire, smoke and leaves
The only mosquito repellent we need
Pay respect to the North, the South, the West and the East
Pay respect to the spirit of this old country
Freedom in the hearts of the young and brave
Who know little of the journey of the diggers who gave
Their lives to the service and the government gains
So that we could dance together on this beautiful day

And now everybody smiles in the setting sun

When the winter seeps into my bones
And I hear the call from the North
I will go
Yeah I will go

And everybody smiles in the setting sun
And sighs with contentment when the day is done
Hand in hand with the one you love
Feeling blessed by the magic of the moon above
And we sing
Sha la la la la la la la
We’re just living in this beautiful world
Sha la la la la la la la
We’re just living in this beautiful world
Sha la la la la la la la
We’re just living in this beautiful world
Sha la la la la la la la
We’re just living in this beautiful world
