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 |
