Don't know about the clowns and all, but otherwise it's pretty cool!

Me and the puzzled travelers
We searched the ground for wealth
And scoured the dreaming valleys
On days where shadows melt
Digging for the blue and the green
Constant in opal or ultramarine
If you could only find yourself that way
And dust was my companion
And thirst caked all our words
Unearthing nearly nothing
We swarmed like carrion birds
Some for fortune, some for greed
Some for want, some for need
If you could only find yourself that way

In hearts suspicion flowers
In hands numb with jealousy
Sleepwalking lightning showers
Transform effortlessly
Thinking of all that I left behind
Down in the shaft when my mind was blind
But you couldn't even find yourself that way

  • The Church is one of the greatest bands of all time. Hope they make the rock n roll hall of fame someday. Steve Kilbey is a great singer-songwrither.

  • This is the song/video that turned me on to this band. Wow to my amazement I got to work with them in concert booking later on. Great bunch!

  • Kilbey looks so pretty in makeup....

  • It's too bad they probably won't make The Hall, but they are still one of the greatest bands of all time.

  • Amazing band!

    

  • One of the only good memories I have with my stepfather from my childhood, was listening to The Church with him. The only common ground. They are absolutely amazing, and are such a tribute to the Australia Music Industry.

  • Love this song and the Aussie boys.

  • I just love this band and this track in particular. The Church is another extremely underrated and underappreciated band, whose musical talent in the leader, Steve Kilbey unfortunately, continues to go unnoticed to this day and it's been 30 yrs since they've appeared on the scene. They are more than just "under the milky way".

  • The bassline is totally killer.

  • Dreamy...

  • love the guitars on this, haven't heard it in a long time...

  • @beepollen1 Yeah, she looks nothing like him, lol!
