Lyrics
[Intro] [Verse] The peat smoke swirls Across the morning sky A distant world Where the curlews cry We walked the shore By the white stone door I hear it still On the heather hill [Pre-Chorus] The clover’s wet With a silver dew I can’t forget The ghost of you [Chorus] Oh, let the harp strings play For the light of yesterday Weaving chains in the grass Watching the summer pass A bell across the loch Echoes on the gray rock Are you still there? In the salty air? [Post-Chorus] Lilting in the mist By the shadows kissed [Break] [Verse] The machair green Where our prints remain The space between The sun and rain You turned your face To a different place The boat was small I remember it all [Pre-Chorus] The clover’s wet With a silver dew I can’t forget The ghost of you [Chorus] Oh, let the harp strings play For the light of yesterday Weaving chains in the grass Watching the summer pass A bell across the loch Echoes on the gray rock Are you still there? In the salty air? [Bridge] Smallpipes call Through the castle wall The whistle sighs Under heavy skies Was it a dream? The silver stream? Or just a song Where we belong? [Verse] The croft is cold But the story’s told In threads of gold And secrets old I close my eyes Where the seagull flies I find the path In the aftermath [Chorus] Oh, let the harp strings play For the light of yesterday Weaving chains in the grass Watching the summer pass A bell across the loch Echoes on the gray rock Are you still there? In the salty air? [Hook] Stay a while In the Hebridean style Daisy chains And the soft rains [Outro]
