lyrics

I can remember how the water was so cold
And the river was so dark and swollen up the banks struggled to hold
We sent the bravest of us in
While the rest of us watched from above and drank the danger in

Long after midnight we would launch ourselves into the dark
And seconds seemed like years until we'd plunge into the Murray's murky heart
And somehow we survived
And though we wished it wouldn't end
We were all so bloody anxious to see what lay around the bend

And on mornings we would rise
Nurse our heads and turn our eyes
To where the snowy mountains rise
And where the rivers source resides
And wonder if we'll ever get that high

And as those last days of summer faded from green to gold
I knew they would never fade from my memory
As time stood still on the sunny shore
The current kept its steady course
Reminding us of moments yet to be
