Lyrics
Midnight Oil
(c) 2000 Loren Harder
all of our toil
is seed in the soil
the hand on the plow
the midnight oil
we receive our lives
one heartbeat at a time
for every moment lived
something's left behind
all of our toil...
we need not look far
to see who we are
we've written our souls
upon our children's hearts
all of our toil...
[inst.]
soon, all too soon
we will harvest the fruit
be it bitter or sweet
be it evil or good
all of our toil...
