The McCalmans - East Lothian Sky текст песни

Исполнитель: The McCalmans

альбом: Scots Abroad


When first we came here there was frost in the air
But the earth was still warm to the seed nestled there
The pageant of autumn with colours so rare
Moved in as September lay dying
As the frost and the snow settled in from the north
The nights they grew longer and days they grew short
And we headed for home and we sat by the hearth
And we watched the flames leap in the firelight
And what have I given and what would I give
To be here on the ridge looking down to the sea?
With the wind in the corn and the lark on the wing
And a wide East Lothian Sky
And a wide East Lothian Sky
Cold days of winter moved weary and slow
Seeds settled safely down under the snow
Ready to waken at springtime's first glow
Burst through the earth to the sunshine
As we walked through the streets under grey city skies
Far away from the place where the sleeping corn lies
We trudged through the snow, scarcely lifting our eyes
But we dreamt of the promise of summer
And what have I given and what would I give
To be here on the ridge looking down to the sea?
With the wind in the corn and the lark on the wing
And a wide East Lothian Sky
And a wide East Lothian Sky
At last the corn rose up, it's greeting the sun
There's green on the land, summer's lease had begun
As we walked once again where the hawthorn was blooming
And felt the sun rise in the morning
And out in the cornfield the barley grew strong
The wind sang a promise of bright days to come
High on the ridge-top the lark sang her song
And summer spread out through the evening
And what have I given and what would I give
To be here on the ridge looking down to the sea?
With the wind in the corn and the lark on the wing
And a wide East Lothian Sky
And a wide East Lothian Sky
And what have I given and what would I give
To be here on the ridge looking down to the sea?
With the wind in the corn and the lark on the wing
And a wide East Lothian Sky
And a wide East Lothian Sky
