Hoodoo Gurus Death Defying Lyrics

Death Defying Lyrics

Ever since the world began

Men have sailed to foreign lands

And the
fortunes that they've found

Are now buried in the ground.



Some would say the ocean roars

As it stumbles to the shore

But
to me it only sings

Of the sorrow that it brings.



All my
friends are dead

Or they're dying.

Empty laughter turns into
crying.

It's death-defying.



Well, I barely learned to
swim,

Just enough to save my skin.

Now I'll never sail alone,

And my harbour is my home.



All our friends are dead

Or
they're dying,

And our laughter only turns into crying,

It's
death-defying.



If there's one thing that I've learned,

It's
the point of no return

And if that's to be our fate

Now's no time
to hesitate.
