And because its cool and misty, and I am Scottish I am now listening to Capercallie, and thank you Terry Foster for telling me about this group so many years ago. https://youtube/watch?v=-K0tQRYv8tw Living in a place with time Living in a place where reality is Standing on a big broad line Watching it all go by, ah, But youre taking it all away The music, the tongue and the old refrains Youre coming here to play But youre pulling the roots from a dying age Remember the Buachaille Mor Reaching for the skies from the barren shores Watching oer the village of Burns And counting the days since the gael kept home Well, the stranger claims it now Sitting like a king with his gold from the south Dont you see the waves of wealth Washing away the soul from the land? Chorus: Here come the Clearances, my friend Silently our history is coming to life again We feel the breeze from the storm to come And up and down this coast Were waiting for the wheel to turn Free were the fields of fern Free was the fishing in the coves of care Empty are the homes of old Empty for the sake of summers cause Yes, youre taking it all away The music, the tongue and the old refrains Youre coming here to play But youre pulling the roots from a dying age
