Tina Arena - Purgatory Road (07.25) lyrics

From the first to stand on the fields of Waterloo Through the two world wars and landing on the moon The search to find forgiveness and to bury all my shame Got to let this burden go, got to shoulder all the blame One day, I will lie down And rest here forever Till then my heart beats heart beats! I'm here to stay - Till the Martians land on London Town Won't fade away - Till the science world takes cancer down I'm here to stay - Till they synthesise the ozone layer Won't fade away - Going to hold out for an answer to my prayers They fall at the hands of dark corruption From saintly deeds to poisonous intentions Living with remorse on Purgatory Road Keeping me alive watch the evil grow One day, I will lie down And sleep here I'm here to stay - Till the Martians land on London Town Won't fade away - Till the science world takes cancer down I'm here to stay - Till they synthesise the ozone layer Won't fade away - Going to hold out for an answer to my prayers I'm here to stay - Till the Martians land on London Town Won't fade away - Till the science world takes cancer down I'm here to stay - Till they synthesise the ozone layer Won't fade away - Going to follow all my prayers I'm here to stay - Till humans walk the ocean floor Won't fade away - Till man can find an end to war I'm here to stay - Till the polar caps freeze up again Won't fade away - Going to hold out for an answer to my prayers
