Heart of NSW

Travelling down this lonely road
Where it goes no one knows
The red dirt marks our way
To our second home far away

Crossing train tracks legs are up
Singing along to our favourite songs
Braiding hair and playing slaps
Parish priest and chats to have

Never been in a better place
Surrounded by more holy grace
Never been in a better place
Surrounded by more holy grace

From the days spent on the farm
To the joyous moments in the school
To the nights spent up on that hill
And the time spent with our second fam

There were good chats and meals to share
Made with hands of love and care
Countless games of hide and seek
Made this a blessed week

Never been in a better place
Surrounded by more holy grace
Never been in a better place
Surrounded by more holy grace

A marks been left on many hearts
Made a difference to many lives
Memories made in many minds
Cherished time forever more

It's always hard to say goodbye
Tears well up and fill our eyes
It's times like these that love ain't shy
I don't want to say goodbye
I don't want to say goodbye
I don't want to say goodbye
I don't want to say goodbye
