I've never seen so many faces Hope was shining in their eyes One day rolls into another And in a breath the baby dies I didn't know what I was missing In paradise down under I never knew where we belonged until now I was only escaping Paradise down under Down and out in Madagascar They fight to live another day When you remind me of a good life This world is blowing me away I know what I was missing In paradise down under I never knew where I belonged until now I was only escaping Paradise down under If only you were here You would see what I've become My eyes are open I used to be so innocent but in the end I had to let it go It's only something missing In paradise down under I never knew where we belonged until now I was only escaping Paradise down under Paradise down under Paradise down under Paradise down under
