"Islay" lyrics
Nathan Evans & THE SAINT PHNX BAND Lyrics
"Islay"
Oh the light of the morning and the songbirds are calling
This moment is ending too soon
Oh a story I reckon like the bold Corryvreckan
Is told by the sun and the moon
Oh the wind through the barley and the waves rolling calmly
They hum to a half-forgot tune
Oh a love ever turning like bonfires still burning
It's warmed by the sun and the moon
Oh this moment is ending too soon
Oh Islay, my love, yeah you are the one
That opened my eyes to this view
The stars in the night, the blue and the white
The Bonnie, the Brave and the Tree
They all lead me back home to you
We walk on the shore by old Saligo
Where the edge of the sea meets the sky
The tides push and pull, you call me a fool
When I tell you I'm lost in your eyes
I could drown in your arms tonight
Oh Islay, my love, yeah you are the one
That opened my eyes to this view
The stars in the night, the blue and the white
The Bonnie, the Brave and the Tree
They all lead me back home to you
Oh Isla-la-lay, la-la-la-la-la
The bonny, the brave and the true
Oh Isla-la-lay, la-la-la-la-la
The Bonnie, the Brave and the Tree
They all lead me back home to you
Oh Islay, my love, yeah you are the one
That opened my eyes to this view
The stars in the night, the blue and the white
The Bonnie, the Brave and the Tree
All lead me back home to you

That I offered up my seat to an old man so he could sit down
He smiled and said:
They don't make 'em like they used to
And there's no respect...

I rule the seas of the pirate scum
What do we do with a drunken sailor?
Don't have a longboat or a rusty razor

Jack Harris - "Up Up & Away" I was frozen by the city lights
I was young and cold and terrified
Told my mom "I'm on my way back home to you"
Ooh...
She said "slow down"
You're running out of road boy
You better look around...

All this time and it was running out
Running out
I knew every little thing about you
Still I missed how we were breaking down

Grab a phone and scrolling on the internet
Bad news is all I really ever seem to get
Stubbed my toe, spilled coffee on my shirt again
Red lights, now I'm caught...
