Melbourne - a love song

It was Jan when we first met, in summer with the longest days. But now it’s autumn, twelve weeks later, and we have to head our ways. We have to move on, towards home and leave you here behind.  It's not easy leaving you, b'cause there’s only one of your kind.

 

Melbourne, we will miss you. Yes it's true, you've caught us.

You've caught us. We could have stayed much longer.  

 

Your streets are vibrant and full of life, no matter what time. So diverse and colorful you are, intensely bright you shine. A huge playground with plenty to do, dotted with restaurants, museums and parks. There’s no way we won't miss your sparks. 

 

Melbourne, we will miss you. Yes it's true, you've caught us.

You've caught us. We could have stayed much longer.  

 

We've started settling down, roots began growing here, with new neighbors and friends. We've seen many great places so far, but if we had to choose one for living, here we could set our tents.

 

Melbourne, we will miss you. Yes it's true, you've caught us.

You've caught us. We could have stayed much longer

 

Framed with a beautiful bay, many great spots with docks, piers and beaches we've met. We will miss your shores and our dinner picnics at sunset. Always had fun in your waters, with kite, boards or just swimming. What better location could there be? 

 

Melbourne, we will miss you. Yes it's true, you've caught us.

You've caught us. We could have stayed much longer.

 

There is only one. It's far in the west. It's where we come from. It’s where our friends and family are. So we move on. We move on for new adventures and reunion. That's what we do and it’s ok. But be sure, we will miss you.

 

Melbourne, we will miss you. Yes it's true, you've caught us.

You've caught us. We could have stayed much longer and we will miss you,

but it's ok.
