Out here nothin' changes, not in a hurry anyway

You feel the endlessness with the comin' of the light o' day

We're talkin' about a chosen place

You wouldn't sell it in a marketplace, well

Well just a minute now

Standing on solid rock

Standing on sacred ground

Living on borrowed time

And the winds of change are blowin' down the line

Right down the line

Round about the dawn o' time, When dreamin' all began

A crowd o' people came

Well they were looking for their promised land

Were running from the heart of darkness

Searching for the heart o' light

Well it was their paradise

But they were standin' on - solid rock

Standing on sacred ground

Living on borrowed time

And the winds of change were blowing cold that night

Oh

They were standin' on the shore one day, Saw the white sails in the sun

Wasn't long before they felt the sting, white man, white law, white gun

Don't tell me that it's justified, 'cause somewhere, someone lied

Yeah well someone lied, someone lied, genocide

Well someone lied, oh, ahh

And now you're standing on - solid rock

Standing on a sacred ground

Living on borrowed time

And the winds of change are blowin' down the line

Solid rock, Standing on sacred ground

Living on borrowed time

And the winds of change are blowing down the line

Solid rock, Standing on sacred ground

Living on borrowed time

And the winds of change are blowing down the line

Oh-oh-oh no, NO-O
