As we drove into Lady Frere
I felt you in the mellow breeze
The land stretched and all bare
I could only stare
When I felt my hand in yours squeeze
As we drove into Lady Frere
Life seemed so unfair
As for you I would beg and please
The land stretched and all bare
There was so much to share
The laughter and glee
As we drove into Lady Frere
But I have no more tears to spare
For I know your heart is at ease
As we drive out of Lady Frere
The land stretched and all bare
