The Muttonbirds Dominion Rd lyrics

Dominion Road is bending
Under its own weight, shining like a strip
Cut from a sheet metal plate
'Cause it's just been raining

Jane reached the point where she knew
What it meant before he opened his mouth
He couldn't say them same
Or he'd have guessed she was moving south
With one of his friends

But it's getting better now
He found it in him to forgive
He walked the city
And he found a place to live
In a halfway house
Halfway down Dominion Road

As he watched Jane's brother sell the house
He felt no sense of loss
More like a mountain climber
Looking back having made it across
The steepest face


But he's still climbing
See him trying to cross the street
He checks his footing
Like he was up ten thousand feet
Above the the clouds
Halfway down Dominion Road

But it's getting better now
He rests his head on the window sill
He watches the city
See the antennas in the hills
From a halfway house
Halfway down Dominion Road

Halfway down, halfway down
Halfway down Dominion Road
Halfway down, halfway down
Halfway down Dominion Road

Dominion Road
