After travelling at night in the cool country air
We come to the last mountain pass to drive with care
It has been darkness all the way in the clear moonlight
With other highway travellers using a guiding headlight
As you turn the last bend you see the sparkling lights ahead
Which signifies the end of the journey as our map has said
After the darkness it’s soothing to see the lighting displace
As the road melds to brightness in a heavenly grace
It always seems to me that a town looks its best
When the lights at night over it is dressed
I think that for an Australian country place
The first sight of them at night makes a good case.
