"Iona" lyrics

Will the gold of the sun
Shine on the place where love was one
Light a fire to bring you hope
They'll stand on the shore and bang the drums

And I won't say goodbye
My heart will never let you go
Oh

I will wait my love
Till they carry me away
I, I...
I will be alone
Till my dying day
I, I...
I will wait

Waiting now [?]
Where you carved your name in stone
And said wait for me
And as the shore fires burned
Your boat would sail away, never to return

I gave you to the water
And she claimed you for her own
Oh

I will wait my love
Till they carry me away
I, I...
I will be alone
Till my dying day
I, I...
I will wait

And I will live alone here
On the island by the sea
And you will hear a song rise up
Through mountains and the trees
And every solemn bird
Will take your name out on the breeze
Oh

I will wait my love
Till they carry me away
I, I...
I will be alone
Till my dying day
I, I...

I will wait my love
Till they carry me away
I, I...
I will be alone
Till my dying day
I, I...
I...
I will wait
