Testo Northern Sky - The Wellermen
Testo della canzone Northern Sky (The Wellermen), tratta dall'album Northern Sky (With Rose Betts)
I used to be a simple man
Thought I had all I'd ever need
A drink at the bar, a guitar in my hands
But sirens called me to the sea
I may be gone, but my heart never leaves
The island of my dreams
Underneath the northern sky
Shimmering green and thunder light
Set a course, we're headed west
Back home to the land I love the best (I love the best)
Look for me upon the tide
Billow and breeze there on our side
Bear to port, boys, haul away
Back homeward again
To the lass that I left on Colonsay
Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, hey!
I fell in love without a plan
Her heart was gold, her soul was fire
The heavens were laughing as we danced
Her name was Josie McIntyre
It's been so long since I took to the sea
Is she waiting there for me?
Underneath the northern sky
Shimmering green and thunder light
Set a course, we're headed west
Back home to the land I love the best (I love the best)
Look for me upon the tide
Billow and breeze there on our side
Bear to port, boys, haul away
Back homeward again
To the lass that I left on
I've seen the world in far-off lands
From China's seas to Mexico
The sullen grass and velvet sands
But only one place feels like home
On Colonsay I'll settle down
No more to race the rolling seas
I'll make a sailcloth wedding gown
If Josie were to marry me
Underneath the northern sky
Shimmering green and thunder light
Set a course, we're headed west
Back home to the land I love the best (I love the best)
Look for me upon the tide
Billow and breeze there on our side
Bear to port, boys, haul away
Back homeward again
I know that she's watching over the bay
To the lass that I left on Colonsay
Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
