Pack the car, say goodbye to the kids
We'll get away for a while
Head up north to the vineyards, (maybe)
Remember how to smile
Forget about our work and worries
Forget about the bills
We’re hypnotised and mesmerised
By the white lines and these hillsDriving up through Bellbird
It's famous for the mine
Used to be a TV show
In the days of Black and white
The houses and the streets look tired
I guess I feel the same
But there's a halo ‘round the sun
As we drive on through the rainYou and me we're travellers
On this winter afternoon…….
We'll celebrate the way we do On the shortest day in June…..Sitting round this fireplace
A wineglass in our hands
Drink a toast to the memory
Of the start of something grand
I can see the burning embers, baby
Reflected in your eyes
And I am glad to share with you
A love that never dies Forget about the sadness It's a second honeymoon……
And we look forward every year to the shortest day in June……..Forget about the sadness
Though we're headed home real soon
‘Cos we'll do it all again next year -
On the shortest day in JuneForget about the sadness -
It's a second honeymoon
And we’ll look forward every year -
