My name is James
And her name is Georgie
A calendar year’s gone by so far

Her beautiful smile
The brightest in Sydney
A scene that’ll never fall apart

We come here today
To manifest our love
Below the foundations of this land

The heads of the times
They reside above
We pray that our wish forms their command

We paint our names
Here at Lady Gowrie Lookout
Georgie & James
Here at Lady Gowrie Lookout
A year today
And it will be forever

We’ll soak our feet
As we sign our story
By this cool and peaceful bay

But we’re up to nothing at all
For the pass of the ferry
We’ll cover our marks and we will wave

As we paint our names
Here at Lady Gowrie Lookout
Georgie & James
Here at Lady Gowrie Lookout
A year today
And it will be forever

A year today
And it’ll be a time to face behind
And look back on the past
Prize the ways on which we’ve gained
And survey what we’ve lost
If we find our old live sign has
Tapered from those rocks
We’ll return
We will return
We will return

They last a few years
Never a lifetime
We tire and seek a fresh new start

But we’ll interfere
If this becomes of us
We’ll go back with our paint and touch it up

And repaint our names
Here at Lady Gowrie Lookout
Georgie & James
Here at Lady Gowrie Lookout
A year today
And it will be forever
A year today
And it will be forever
