[Verse]

Trams roll by with their rhythmic clack

Trains hum tunes on the city's track

Taxis dart through the glowing night

Lantern-lit restaurants drenched in delight

[Chorus]

Hot cold wet dry this city's alive

A multicultural heartbeat will thrive

From the bay to the hills to the Great Ocean Road

Melbourne's a treasure in every mode

[Verse 2]

Footy fields where heroes are made

Cricket's anthem under summer's shade

Formula 1 roars like a lion's cry

Puffing Billy climbs where dreams touch sky

[Chorus]

Hot cold wet dry this city's alive

A multicultural heartbeat will thrive

From the bay to the hills to the Great Ocean Road

Melbourne's a treasure in every mode

[Bridge]

Between rain and shine both fast and slow

Cultures blend in the city’s glow

Hidden cafes whispers sweet tales divine

Every alley a heartbeat each corner sublime

[Verse 3]

From the art on walls to the music that spills

Through the food that warms and the world it fills

The great south land wraps around its chest

In Melbourne's pulse you'll find life's best

[Chorus]

Hot cold wet dry this city's alive

A multicultural heartbeat will thrive

From the bay to the hills to the Great Ocean Road

Melbourne's a treasure in every mode

[Bridge]

Between rain and shine both fast and slow

Cultures blend in the city’s glow

Hidden cafes whispers sweet tales divine

Every alley a heartbeat each corner sublime

[Chorus]

Hot cold wet dry this city's alive

A multicultural heartbeat will thrive

From the bay to the hills to the Great Ocean Road

Melbourne's a treasure in every mode

[Bridge]

Between rain and shine both fast and slow

Cultures blend in the city’s glow

Hidden cafes whispers sweet tales divine

Every alley a heartbeat each corner sublime

[Verse 4]

From the art on walls to the music that spills

Through the food that warms and the world it fills

The great south land wraps around its chest

In Melbourne's pulse you'll find life's best

[Chorus]

Hot cold wet dry this city's alive

A multicultural heartbeat will thrive

From the bay to the hills to the Great Ocean Road

Melbourne's a treasure in every mode

[Bridge]

Between rain and shine both fast and slow

Cultures blend in the city’s glow

Hidden cafes whispers sweet tales divine

Every alley a heartbeat each corner sublime

[Verse 5]

From the art on walls to the music that spills

Through the food that warms and the world it fills

The great south land wraps around its chest

In Melbourne's pulse you'll find life's best

[Bridge]
