In 1984, I was living in [F#] Sydney, through a particularly cold winter.
And I remember getting up one morning at 5.30, which is when I like to write,
and my thoughts turned to [B] my childhood in the tropics.
I figure I wrote this song to keep me [F#] warm that cold morning.
Little [B] did I know it would keep me warm for so many years with the friendships it's made.
The [F#]

[F#]
sun sinks behind me in the west, this is the time of day [C#] I love best.
So it breezes murmur [F#] through the coconut farm, [B] as the colors change they set a [F#] scene of tropic calm.
Seagulls heading back to land, over the mangroves and [C#] salt pans.
By a lazy creek with a six pack [F#] and a fishing line, [B] winning back some memories [C#] and losing [F#] track of time.
I head a little [C#] further north east, [B] leave the city street [C#] high, out [B] of sight out of [C#] mind.
[F#] [B] All this appears, [G#m] I head a little [C#] further north [F#] east.
[B]
Feeling the night wrap around me, eases my mind in [C#] serenity.
Ocean waves are humming [F#] on the island reef.
[B] These balmy nights and sultry [C#] days are a welcome [F#] relief.
I head a little [C#] further [F#] east, leave the city [C#] street high, out of sight out of mind.
[F#]
My [B] troubles all disappear, I [G#m] head a little further [C#] north east.
[F#] I [B] head a little [C#] further north [F#] east,
[B] taking my [C#] mind to an [B] easy time.
[C#] The whole [F#] island's settled, the night sky is clear, I [G#m] head a little further [C#] north east.
