Scottish Winds lyrics

Come gather in my lungs Scottish wind

Belt out your blackest poems as the sea around you sings

When the drone takes to the air a single note to raise my hair

Carry songs beyond my lungs cold Scottish winds

Come fall upon my shoulders Scottish rain

And dissolve all of the worry that has hunched this back of mine

Let the hurt run down the drain to the reservoir

And one day I'll add a drop of my old worries to a dram

Gather heavy in my lungs Scottish wind

All the fag smoke in the ether of the grouse that clips your wings

And I will cough just like my granddad and his grandpa before him

Oh blow youth into these lungs old Scottish wind

Come burl around my body Scottish blood

I'll try not to spill a drop, I'm sure you've spilled enough

And the English fucking rule will mean nothing to these towns

Run forever in my veins bold Scottish blood

Bring a whisper to my mouth soft Scottish winds

Just enough to say I love you to the girl that keeps me sane

And take the stupid things I've said and blow them miles and miles away

Thank you in advance Scottish wind

Thank you in advance Scottish wind
