Maybe somewhere in the southern hemisphere
 There could be room for all this love
 Where they've saved a place for innocence
 And what is still mysterious
 And their dreaming time
 They're dreaming time

 Because we've broken down the wilderness
 And we've blackened up the skies
 And we cry 'cause we've got no vision left
 While the smoke gets in our eyes
 And there's no more time
 And the dream is dying

 But I love you baby
 And I know you and I
 Can find a way to heaven
 Just like Orion in the sky
 He's the long lost hero
 He's the guardian of your son
 But can he protect us baby
 From all the sad things we've done

 Now I know there's no sense in hiding
 And we can't escape this war
 And I have made my peace with dying
 Down here on this killing floor
 In a world gone blind
 Where there's no more time

 But I love you baby
 And I know by and by
 We gonna find a way to heaven
 Just like Orion in the sky
 He can walk upon the water
 He can shine for everyone
 But can he protect us baby
 From all the sad things we've done

 Is it too much to ask in a lifetime
 For just one shot at happiness
 Do you just have to laugh at the right lines
 Until you come face to face
 With the looking glass
 To be reckoned with the sins of our time

 I love you baby
 I can see you and I
 As we fly away together
 Up to Orion in the sky
 He's the last of the fallen angels
 He's the light of the Southern Cross
 Maybe he can take us baby
 Back to the paradise we've lost

 So I'll see you darlin'
 Now fly baby, fly
 Down across the Fiji Islands
 To where the Seven Sisters cry
 Gather all your dreams and take them
 Somewhere so far out of reach
 Follow the sword of the hunter, baby
 And meet me on the beach
 We are forever tied
 Still on the run
 To the medicine man
 For all the sad, sad things we've done
