Feel So Near |
You’ll find me sitting at this table |
With my friend Fin and my friend John |
My friend Murdaney tells us stories |
Of things long gone, long gone |
And we may take a glass together |
The whisky makes it all so clear |
It fires our dulled imaginations |
And I feel so near, so near |
I feel so near to the howling of the winds |
I feel so near to the crashing of the waves |
I feel so near to the flowers in the fields |
I feel so near |
The old man looks out to the islands |
He says this place is endless thin |
There’s no real distance here to mention |
We might all fall in, all fall in |
No distance to the spirits of the living |
No distance to the spirits of the dead |
And as he turned his eyes were shining |
And he proudly said, proudly said |
I feel so near to the howling of the winds |
I feel so near to the crashing of the waves |
I feel so near to the flowers in the fields |
I feel so near |
So we build our tower constructions |
There to mark our place in time |
We justify our great destructions |
As on we climb, on we climb |
Now the journey doesn’t seem to matter |
The destination’s faded out |
And gathering out along the headland |
I hear the children shout, children shout |
I feel so near to the howling of the winds |
I feel so near to the crashing of the waves |
I feel so near to the flowers in the fields |
I feel so near |
