Melbourne Blue/Melbourne Green

Have you seen the place I love

It's green below and blue above

If only I had the wings of a dove

I'd fly back to Melbourne

Melbourne blue, Melbourne green

The prettiest picture you've ever seen

Shaded avenue show the way

I'll come back to you someday

I left my darling in that town

Now I'm half the world around

And I can't forget that beautiful sound

Of love on the banks of the Yarra

Melbourne blue, Melbourne green

The prettiest picture you've ever seen

Shaded avenue show the way

I'll come back to you someday

There's green trams if you pay the fare

I can see her standing there

And I'd pick a red rose anyway

To tell her that I love her

Melbourne blue, Melbourne green

The prettiest picture you've ever seen

Shaded avenue show the way

I'll come back to you someday

I know that I must find a way

Perhaps I'll leave and stow away

And I'll shout to my love across the bay

When I get back to Melbourne

Melbourne blue, Melbourne green

The prettiest picture you've ever seen

Shaded avenue show the way

I'll come back to you someday

Melbourne blue, Melbourne green

The prettiest picture you've ever seen

Shaded avenue show the way

I'll come back to you someday
