Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Dominion Road is bendin'
Under its own weight
Shinin' like a strip
Cut from a sheet metal plate
'Cause it's just been raining
[Verse 2]
Jane reached the point where she knew
What it meant before it opened his mouth
He couldn't say the same
Or he'd have guessed she was moving South
With one of his friends
[Verse 3]
But it's getting better now
He found it in him to forgive
He walked the city
And he found a place to live
In a halfway house
Halfway down Dominion Road
[Verse 4]
Ooh, and he watched Jane's brother sell the house
He felt no sense of loss
More like a mountain climber
Looking back having made it across
The steepest phase
[Verse 5]
Oh, but he's still climbing
See him trying to cross the street
He tests his footing
Like he was up ten thousand feet
Above the clouds
Halfway down Dominion Road
[Verse 6]
Whoa
Whoa
Whoa
Whoa
[Verse 7]
But it's getting better now
He rests his head on the window sill
He watches the city
He can see the antennas in the hills
From the halfway house
Halfway down Dominion Road
[Verse 8]
Halfway down, halfway down
Halfway down Dominion Road
Halfway down, halfway down
Halfway down Dominion Road
[Verse 9]
Whoa
Yeah, Dominion Road
Dominion Road
Dominion Road
