LANDSLIDE I took my love and I took it down I climbed a mountain and I turned around And I saw my reflection in the snow covered hills 'Till the landslide brought me down Oh, mirror in the sky What is love? Can the child within my heart rise above? Can I sail thru the changing ocean tides? Can I handle the seasons of my life? Well, I've been afraid of changing 'Cause I, I built my life around you But time makes you bolder Children get older I'm getting older too I'm getting older too So, take my love, take it down Oh climb a mountain and turn around If you see my reflection in the snow covered hills Well the landslide will bring you down, down And If you see my reflection in the snow covered hills Well maybe the landslide will bring it down x2

Page 9: BETTER BE HOME SOON. - Memo Music Hall

Feel like Scott of the Antarctic Base camp too far away A Russian sun beneath the Arctic Burke and Wills and camels Initials in the tree She don't like That kind of behaviour She don't like That kind of behaviour So, throw down your guns Don't be so reckless Throw down your guns Don't be so
