Homeless, homeless
Moonlight sleeping on a midnight lake
Homeless, homeless
Moonlight sleeping on a midnight lake
We are homeless, we are homeless
The moonlight sleeping on a midnight lake
And we are homeless, homeless, homeless
The moonlight sleeping on a midnight lake

Zio yami, zio yami, nhliziyo yami
Nhliziyo yami amakhaza asengi bulele
Nhliziyo yami, nhliziyo yami
Nhliziyo yami, angibulele amakhaza
Nhliziyo yami, nhliziyo yami
Nhliziyo yami somandla angibulele mama
Zio yami, nhliziyo yami
Nhliziyo yami, nhliziyo yami

Strong wind destroy our home
Many dead, tonight it could be you
Strong wind, strong wind
Many dead, tonight it could be you

And we are homeless, homeless
Moonlight sleeping on a midnight lake
Homeless, homeless
Moonlight sleeping on a midnight lake
Homeless, homeless
Moonlight sleeping on a midnight lake

As of the 23rd of December, I'll be homeless.

One of my flatmates is wanting to move closer to church, over in Spreydon and the other may be moving down to Wanaka for a new job. The chances of finding two flatmates before Christmas, along with the slumlord wanting to increase the rent by $30 per week, along with the lease which needs to be signed for another year mean that the chances are almost nil.

So it is with a little de-ja-vous that I happen to be looking for a temp. home for Christmas while I get my butt into gear and start looking for a house!

that does suck, flatmates are so unreliable.
Maybe the dream of your own place could become a reality a bit sooner? Although, maybe not, given that you work in ministry. LOL.
Good luck.
