John Williamson Great Ocean Road lyrics

I woke up early wished the clouds away
I rubbed the sleep off a brand new day
A cargo ship on the edge of the curve
It was the moment we deserve

Lost in emotion all at sea
I loved you and you loved me
The wind blew up, all hands on deck
And then a big wave and we were a wreck

Great Ocean Road
Great Ocean Road
Couldn't let the moment slip away
Love was the mood down the Great Ocean Road


Comes a time you've gotta get out of bed
Bacon to frizzle and burn some bread
The moment was over no more to be said
Caffeine coffee and news to be read

I went for a walk on a roaring beach
Ripe blackberries out of reach
I'll always remember we sailed away
In a motel room on Apollo Bay
