We were off on an adventure to explore the Australian Alps,
Up an old bush trail in the Snowies
Where the ghostly gums whistle in the wind
And the wild flowers dance in the breeze
We were off on an adventure to explore the Australian Alps,
Across a swinging bridge into a land of nowhere
There we found a magic river trickling on forever
Where fish tickle my feet and a waterfall splashes overhead
We were off on an adventure to explore the Australian Alps
There I found a river, and in that river I found a stone
So perfect it looks as though it was carved by the sun and dropped
From the sky into the Coral Sea into the rest of the world unknown
We were off on an adventure to explore the Australian Alps,
Where the brumbies run wild in the night
And the storm clouds gather in the distance
And the storm clouds gather in the distance
The rainfall drops dreams into my mind and my stone makes them shine
We were off on an adventure to explore the Australian Alps,
Up an old bush trail in the Snowies
Of a wondrous day in one of my favourite places
