At The End Of The Night Lyrics
Is your love a river
of no respite?
Will it carry me
from the desert to the sea
at the end of the night
when my heart is broken
when my dreams are ragged and trite
when I fall too far
wil you be my morning star
at the end of the night
Are you the reason I'm alive
When I have no f
Both Sides Of The Tweed Lyrics
What's the spring breathing jasmine and rose
What's the summer with all its gay train
What's the splendour of autumn to those
Who've bartered their freedom for gain.
Let the love of our land's sacred rights
To the love of our people succeed
Let friendship and honour unite
And fl
Claire In Heaven Lyrics
I was no more than three days old
too young to speak too young to count my toes
I think of fields where I might run
this moral twilight I've been plucked from
Up here we have no goals
You tear your hearts, you claw your souls
I wonder at this life that passed me be
But still I s

Crime Of Passion Lyrics
With a crime of passion lie those dreams of yesterday
Broken like the snows of January
Silence will fall on those masters of shame
When the family garden wakes to Spring again
Under the moon and over land
Make the shadows of the chosen one
With words of mercy in his hand
He walk
Delirium Lyrics
But on every branch and twig
Was your pursuing face
I went to the fertile shore yesterday
To gather cockles for a meal
Every single shell was filled with
Your beauty my love
I went into the alehouse
To expel you from my head
Every glass I raised your beauty
Overflowed f
Early Morning Grey Lyrics
I'm driving through the open roads of hometown
The Junipers are swaying again
It's barely 5 o'clock and sunlight's on the loch
and nothing's wrong, no nothing's wrong
I've been working day and night for this moment
Since I shed those leaves of doubt
It's here I want to stay, in
Fisherman's Dream Lyrics
What happened to the fisherman's dream
When they rowed their last boat down
What happened to the dream of the fisherman
When they cast their last net round
What happened to the fisherman's love
When it drove him over the hill
What happened to the fisherman's dream
Is the fisherma

Grace And Pride Lyrics
Water lapping round my knees
Golden sand beneath my feet
Would mean a lot to me
There's very little you can say
To make those feelings go away
Till you take me
There's nothing more that I prefer
To see the boys and the girls
Step it out with grace and pride
As honesty flows by y
Heart Of The Highland Lyrics
Let the dance begin
Lock away the fine china
And kick up the old stone floor
Where the train divides
Upon Lomondside
Hear the echo from forest to shore
Dailing over deep water
And dancing on air
If you close your eyes
You will be there
Do you dream of a journey

Move On Lyrics
Imagine a place where you don't need a name
and you don't need a licence to open your mind
It's a travelling circus of jokers and clowns
a movie picture that's one of its kind
and this place is the only place where even the clergy dance in the rain
and I know if I was stronger I'
Oh Mo Dhuthaich Lyrics
An emigrant song in praise of Uist. The beautiful words were written
by Allan MacPhee who lived at Loch Carnan, South Uist.

Open The Doorrusset-haired Daughter Lyrics
Open the door for the fiddling tailor
Open the door for the tailoring fiddler
Open the door for the fiddling tailor
The King's son-in-law is the tailoring fiddler.
Faithful am I to him, kinsman am I to him
Faithful am I to the tailoring fiddler
Faithful am I to him, kinsman am I
Outlaws Lyrics
Outlaws - available on 'Get Out'
She stands at the window
Proud Mary, bad news
Demands from the credit
And the sheriff's men too
The wife of a fishermen no longer at sea
She can always find him where whisky flows free
She never called it poverty, the doorstep was clean

Servant To The Slave Lyrics
Leaving for an unknown shore
With every breeze just like a sigh
The sea is deep with tears of those before
With feelings like the sea birds cry
It gently took me by the hand
Across the ocean blue
And placed me in a foreign land
Far away from you
No more the ancient conve
Shelter Lyrics
We're building a shelter
on the edge of mount Verona
It's a corrugated palace
with a tree lined avenue
If you're frightened of the future
and you're watching o'er your shoulder
If you're getting kind of anxious and nervous
Come and stay here till it's through
This a'int no ark
The Bens Of Jura Lyrics
If deceiving me, o love, thou wert;
If deceiving me despite thy vow;
Yet chant thy praise I ever will,
Tho' deceiving me, o love, thou wert.
O King! I am the sorrowful one,
And the love of the Earl a-hurting me;
The tears are ever running from mine eyes,
And my heart is bruised
The Dreaming Sea Lyrics
The Dreaming Sea
flexes in the lilac light
and you're the moon and I'm the tide
cradle my head
kiss me like you wish me dead
breathe life into me
till I feel as though I'll never sleep again
to close my eyes and feel the whole world swim
till I don't know where you end, where I b
The Misty Isle Lyrics
Although my head has greyed
With forgetfulness and sadness,
And the sun of my fifty years
Has darkened under the clouds;
My thoughts are filled
With a great desire,
To see the Isle of Skye
The elements and the mist.
It is more than forty years
Since I left you willingly,
And I p
There's Always Sunday Lyrics
I'm not afraid I know what's your mind
It does not worry me
When I hear your name sometimes it's a blade
Mostly it's a key.
And there's always Sunday, to change your mind
for the craven and the blind
There's always Sunday to change your mind
And I'll take my chances here with yo
To The Moon Lyrics
(Verse 1)
She's taking her time making up the reasons
To justify all the hurt inside
Guess she knows from the smiles and the look in their eyes
Everyone's got a theory about the bitter one
They're saying
Mama never loved her much
And daddy never keeps in touch
That's why
Waiting For The Wheel To Turn Lyrics
Living in a place with time
Living in a place where reality is
Standing on a big broad line
Watching it all go by
Ah, but you're taking it all away
The music, the tongue and the old refrains
You're coming here to play
And you're pulling the roots from a dying age

What I Would Like Is To Be At Peace With You Lyrics
The brother nearest to you
Was watching you in your agony
It was going up the brae
That they caught up with my darling
It was when climbing the garden wall
That my love gave the first shout
The oldest brother said
'Engrage the knives'
The youngest brother said
My curses on my s
Why Won't You Touch Me Lyrics
You come to my table, oh so down in the heart
You stay over iced margharita while other worlds can fall apart
Now we could be happy to be who we are
But some things run deeper than you;ll ever say
On the darkest of blue days
You cry for these red skies above you
Your eyes watch f
You Will Rise Again Lyrics
Cold December dawn
The party's over and the thrill is gone
Tears are at your feet
They're running down the empty street
But I know for certain
Every time you fall
You will rise again
Above it all
Fly the way you do
The way you dream when love is new
Try to understand
