Constellations in the Stone

[Intro]
[Verse]
The gorse is blooming gold
Across the headland fold
The gulls are wheeling high
Against a silver sky
I walk the cliffside track
To bring my spirit back
[Pre-Chorus]
The sea mist starts to curl
Like ribbons for a girl
The white-capped swells arise
Before my weary eyes
[Chorus]
Oh, the salt is on the wind
Where the old sea songs begin
I found your faded shawl
Beside the stone-built wall
The light is in the pane
I'm coming home again
[Verse]
I trace the lintel stone
The stars you made your own
Each salt-stained etched design
A map for me and mine
The driftwood window seat
Where sea and memory meet
[Hook]
Constellations in the stone
I am never truly alone
[Bridge]
The peat fire starts to glow
Like embers long ago
The pipes begin to play
From far across the bay
The distance fades away
I've come at last to stay
[Breakdown]
Fiddle cry
Low whistle sigh
Tide is high
Don't say goodbye
[Chorus]
Oh, the salt is on the wind
Where the old sea songs begin
I found your faded shawl
Beside the stone-built wall
The light is in the pane
I'm coming home again
[Verse]
The keeper’s watch is done
Beneath the setting sun
But in the lantern’s flare
I feel you standing there
The heritage of light
Will guide me through the night
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, the salt is on the wind
Where the old sea songs begin
I found your faded shawl
Beside the stone-built wall
The light is in the pane
I'm coming home again
[Outro]
