Lyrics and translation
Original
Rise and shine boy, your life awaits.
Every turmoil, it turns a page.
You leave your love, stay off the drugs. You're high enough, I see it.
Time moves on and then people change.
Specks of dust in the Milky Way.
You use your voice 'cause that's your joy. Drown out the noise, I mean it.
The girl who broke your heart, you know she's married now.
Your dad's no longer here, but let's hope he's looking down.
I know you need your mates but if you stay you'll drown.
One day you'll meet your darling and she'll sweep you off the ground.
You call her home.
You call her home.
You call her home. You call her home.
You call her home.
You call her home.
Eyes of emerald, she dulls your pain.
All those demons have sailed away.
The salty air runs through her hair. That's how you know you're healing.
Take St Jude as your Northern Star.
Catherine moves but she won't be far.
So face your fears, embrace your tears. Don't ever hide your feelings.
The girl who broke your heart, you know she's married now.
Your dad's no longer here, but let's hope he's looking down.
I know you need your mates but if you stay you'll drown.
One day you'll meet your darling and she'll sweep you off the ground.
You call her home.
You call her home.
You call her home. You call her home.
You call her home. You call her home.
Rise and shine boy, your life awaits.
