Recovery |
| Watching the morning come in on the land |
| See the moon roll over Skeabost |
| See the young men late in the glen |
| All with camans in hand |
| Sea winds out on the wild |
| Sea waves crash onto Uig |
| See the black homes strung out in a line |
| Cross the island of Skye |
| I can’t believe |
| That it’s taking all this time |
| I can’t believe |
| My life and my destiny |
| After the clans, after the clearings |
| Here I am |
| Recovering |
| Should have been home before daylight |
| It’s not easy when you’re down and hungry |
| One from the late run rolled up in a coat |
| I make my way across the moor |
| For a late summer in '84 |
| But now there’s a new day dawning |
| I’ve heard the Braes men talk in Portree |
| The news from Glendale |
| And I can’t believe |
| That it’s taking all this time |
| I can’t believe |
| My life and my destiny |
| After the clans, after the clearings |
| Here I am |
| Recovering |
| Still the morning comes in on the land |
| See the new sun red and rising |
| See the corn turn ripe in the fields |
| See the growth in the glen |
| And MacPherson’s in Kilmuir tonight |
| What a night for a people rising |
| And oh God not before time |
| There’s justice in our lives |
