Death Defying Lyrics - Hoodoo Gurus

Ever since the world began 

Men have sailed to foreign lands 

And the fortunes that they've found 

Are now buried in the ground 

Some would say the ocean roars 

As it stumbles to the shore 

But to me it only sings 

Of the sorrow that it brings 

All my friends are dead 

Or they're dying 

Empty laughter turns into crying 

It's death defying 

Well, I barely learned to swim 

Just enough to save my skin 

Now I'll never sail alone 

And my harbour is my home 

All our friends are dead 

Or they're dying 

And our laughter only turns into crying 

It's death defying 

If there's one thing that I've learned 

It's the point of no return 

And if that's to be our fate 

Now's no time to hesitate
