Slowly Slowly - Melbourne

https://slowlyslowly.lnk.to/Melbourne We were appointed the task of creating a song & video in 24 hours around Melbourne's COVID-19 lockdown - this is what we cooked up. Thank you to triple j for the opportunity. Melbourne, this one's for you. I'm going back to the future each night when I dream I’m standing on steeples, I‘m on Flinders St Yeah I hear the forum the heat in the air You could cut it like cake from Brunettis I swear Yeah I wanna be here when they end the fight & the lights of my neighbours go out for the night Their houses all empty, the sound of the streets My new favourite song I haven’t heard it in weeks Take me down to Fitzroy yeah and teach me how to dance & when we move on to to Revs make sure that I’m sorry in advance What I’d give to take you out to dinner It’s been a long year, but I’m sure Melbourne’s gonna answer when I call What I'd give to take you on a bender Let the kinks all flatten out Melbourne’s my town & I miss her I’d love nothing more than to be standing behind The pole at the corner, to be wrapped round a pint For my shout at the bar, for my phone to just die For Monday regret, an overpriced cab ride To miss my tram, pay $5 bucks for a coffee Uncomfortable small talk & wait like a zombie In ques & in lines yeah I’m in lockdown I’m longing Melbourne, I’m sorry Take me on a joyride yeah, windows down to smell the flowers I wanna see The G light up this year & sit on Punt Road for an hour And I know where I want go on the way home I wanna stand at Dannys Burgers in the cold Oh just when you thought we were done Melbourne’s made a comeback
