About this song
Minjerribah My Heart comes from island life: place, belonging, summer energy and the way a local home can open the imagination to a much bigger world.
Lyrics
Verse 1 The sand beneath my feet tells stories old and true, Of people who walked this land long before I knew. Minjerribah, you hold my soul, In your arms, I am whole. From Goompi’s shores to Mooloomba’s skies, I see the island’s love through ancient eyes. Chorus Minjerribah, you are my heart, We’ve been together from the very start. Your spirit sings in the wind and the sea, Minjerribah, you’re a part of me. With every step I take on your sacred ground, I hear your heartbeat, a sacred sound. Verse 2 The Quandamooka people, keepers of the land, Their wisdom flows like the shifting sand. In every breeze, I hear their call, Reminding me, we are one and all. Through the waves and the stars up high, Minjerribah, you’ll never die. Chorus Minjerribah, you are my heart, We’ve been together from the very start. Your spirit sings in the wind and the sea, Minjerribah, you’re a part of me. With every step I take on your sacred ground, I hear your heartbeat, a sacred sound. Bridge From the cliffs of Point Lookout, I see, The beauty of you, the strength of we. Every corner holds a tale untold, A bond that can’t be bought or sold. Chorus Minjerribah, you are my heart, We’ve been together from the very start. Your spirit sings in the wind and the sea, Minjerribah, you’re a part of me. With every step I take on your sacred ground, I hear your heartbeat, a sacred sound. Outro Minjerribah, I’ll hold you near, In every breath, you will appear. My heart belongs to you, always true, Minjerribah, I’ll sing for you. ---
