Dominion Road - The Mutton Birds

Dominion Road is bending

Under its own weight

Shining like a strip

Cut from a sheet metal plate

'Cause it’s just been raining

Jane even reached the point where she knew

What he meant before he opened his mouth

He couldn’t say the same

Or he’d have guessed she was moving south

With one of his friends

But he’s getting better now

He found it in him to forgive

He walked the city

And he found a place to live

In a halfway house

Halfway down Dominion Road

And he watched Jane’s brother sell the house —

He felt no sense of loss

More like a mountain climber

Looking back having made it across

The steepest phase

Oh, but he’s still climbing

See him trying to cross the street

He tests his footing

Like he was up ten thousand feet

Above the the clouds

Halfway down Dominion Road

But he’s getting better now

He rests his head on the window sill

He watches the city

He can see the antennas in the hills

From a halfway house

Halfway down Dominion Road

Halfway Down

Halfway Down

Halfway Down Dominion Road

Halfway Down

Halfway Down

Halfway Down Dominion Road
