about

Based on a short movie by Aboriginal film maker, My Bed Your Bed, that we saw at the Sydney Film Festival, in which a young couple move in together, find they have nothing in common, and move out. The relationship flowers, flounders and falls over the course of a few days.

lyrics

Let the sun go down on your last regret
Forty years wrong on a barbed wire fence
Feeling it over, pack up your books and clothes
Back up the car, you took the wrong road

Easy forgiven, empty the whispering wire
I watched you two burn
Beat into ploughshares the hammer and sickle of song
Get out of town you don’t belong

Swearing that day from deep in your heart
as they made you, so you’re a part of them

Try not believing when you’re leaving, it’s the wrong time
You might change their hearts, but never their minds
I know, mistaken as I often am
with plenty of time and too many plans

Let the sun go down on your last regret
Forty years wrong on a barbed wire fence
Feeling it over, pack up your books and clothes
Back up the car you took the wrong road
