"If it's wet, it's ours!" is the catchcry of the Sydney Water Police as they battle to keep their harbour safe for the thousands of locals who use it every day, whether for work or play. Beneath its surface exists a playground for the murky underworld; a place of illicit rubbish dumps. pollution hazards, the remnants of huge drug hauls, and a graveyard of bodies from years of suicides, accidents and murders. That's the world of the WATER RATS, and elite group of brave men and women guarding the harbour against all the elements that threaten to foul the blue waters. With the breathtaking actions stunts, thrilling races against time, chases across both waves and wharves, intrigue mystery, triumphs, heartbreak, love, lust and laughter, WATER RATS is a compelling drama from Southern Star and the Nine Network.

03 - BREATHE
(James Freud- Song Zu Publishing)
Vocals: Raelee Hill and James Freud


What do you do when you're all alone
Do you stare at the window when I'm on the phone
How do you feel when I get in the way
When you tell me to go do you want me to stay

Breathe me in and hold me there
Say that you'll never let me go
Breathe me in and hold me there
Say that you'll never, never let me go

When you say that you love me is it ever a lie
Do you fill up with hurt do you just want to cry
When I lay down beside you in the dark on the bed
Do you wish I was someone else, someone else instead

Breathe me in and hold me there
Say that you'll never let me go
Breathe me in and hold me there
Say that you'll never, never let me go

(Rivett/Southern Star Publishing)
Vocals: Cathi Ogden


Wake me when this game is over
I'm drowin'
Wake me when this game is over
Take me away

Tell me that the game is over
Tell me I'm dreamin'
Tell me that this pain is over
Just take me away

Wake me when this game is over
I'm drowin'
Wake me when this game, this game is over
Please lead me home

Tell me that the dream is over
Tell me I'm dreamin'
Tell me that this dream is over
Take me away

Wake me when the game is over
I'm drowin'
Wake me when this game, this game is over
Please lead me home

Tell me that the game is over
Take me, take me, take me, take me away
Take me, take me, take me, take me away

05 - I CALL YOU OUT
(Cameron Giles - Song Zu Publishing)
Vocals: Cameron Giles


I can here you now
You walk the lonely mile
By yourself to the other side
And you still think of me
It's not the way of my world
It's just the way you and I Work these Things out so girl
Do you still think of me

I call you out
From the crowd line I call you out
But in the meantime I call you out
I call you out
Cause chances are as they began
It's something special in the eyes
Of this girl and man
If you still think of me
Because I'm here right now
I put together heart and mind
Body soul I'll show you how If you still think of me

I hear your name ring out one thousand times
I cross the mountain tops and I walk that line
Push me down and kick me round
I'm scared of nothing
I build a tower for you

You are my friend right now
You place the bet I roll the dice and we see
Just how If you still think of me
I build a tower for you
I shout your name across the roof tops
I'm a Stranger here
Do you still think of me

07 - I'LL DREAM OF YOU
(Mark Rivett - Southern Star Publishing)
Vocals: Hugo Wilson


I never though I'd be the first
To say our last goodbye
And make you cry
I always thought that I'd been cursed
And now as time goes by
I can see it in your eyes

Somewhere I'll dream of you
Somewhere where dreams come true

Somehow I feel alive
Although a part of me is dyin'
And I can feel the pain
Somewhere deep inside
A part of me is cryin'
Just cryin' out your name

If you look into my eyes
I love you though I'm leavin'
I want to hole you tight
Don't ever compromise
And never stop believin'
Believin' and we right

I know, I know I'll dream of you
Somewhere dreams come true

08 - I DON'T WANNA WANT YOU
(Les Gock/Mark Rivett - Song Zu Publishing)
Vocals: Chiara Browne
Backing Vocals: Mark Rivett, Cameron Giles & Les Gock


I don't want to want you
Even though I want to I don't want you tonight
I don't want to stay here
Spend another day here
I don't want to want you tonight

Seem's that life's a contradiction
Partly truth and party fiction
And some wounds not even time can heal
You know you should walk before you learn to run
Take a little time to become
The one you try so hard to conceal

But tonight, I'm in some sort of trance, and it won't let go
Tonight,
Just a sideways glance, and I've lost control

As every day goes by you wonder
Where did you go wrong, you ponder
The life you give, you don't give back
Everyday your more obsessive
More possessed, but less possessive
Your so good at coverin you tracks

But tonight, I'm in some sort of trance, and it won't let go
Tonight,
Just a sideways glance, and I've lost control

I'll turn the lights down low
I've waited so long for you
We'll take our time, relax go slow
I'll never take my eyes off you

You mouth so soft a sweet delight
So like a velvet flower
I'll kiss your lips a thousand times
Tonight will be loves longest hour

Just our love
We've got all night making love

I'll move my fingers down your spine
I just feel your body slow
Caress you touch you you're so fine
Baby just let the feelings flow

Just our love
We've got all night making love
We'll do it right

14 - SWEETER THAN SWEET
(Dave Smith - Southern Star publishing)

Sweeter than the sweetest
Sweeter than the sweetest
Sweeter than the sweetest
Sweeter than the sweetest sound

Sometimes when I'm feeling down
Wastin' away
Just hangin round
And then I see your smile
I'm changin my ways for a while
Things keep coming round

I don't know what it is
I don't mind tellin you
I found a lot of love to give
I'll be around to your house
My feet won't even touch the ground
Cause the love I found is sweeter than the sweetest sound

Now I've told you how I feel
Give me a chance to be real
Oh happieness, peace and bliss listen up just give me this
I'll be around to your house
My feet won't even touch the ground
Cause the love I found is sweeter than the sweetest sound
