Skipinnish Walking On the Waves song lyrics
An island in the sunlight
Laughter in the rain
A whisky in the darkness
It all feels just the same.
Watch the sunset over Hynish
See the twilight merge to dawn
Hear the waves caress the shoreline
As the island carries on.
I've been walking, walking these shores all my days
But with you by my side I am walking on the waves.
There's two lovers on the machair
And they walk down to the sand
Their silhouettes are on the water
As they paddle hand in hand.
And it's a game of sweet surrender
When there's nothing left to say
And there are moments to remember
Once these days are long away.
I've been walking, walking these shores all my days
But with you by my side I am walking on the waves.
So you look out on the ocean
See the headlands and the strands
And you wonder what horizons
Will shape tomorrow's plans
And through the turning of the seasons
And the cycle of the days
Every drink's another reason
To let tomorrow sail away.
I've been walking, walking these shores all my days
But with you by my side I am walking on the waves.
The surging of the ocean,
The breakers on the shore,
The echoes of our bodies,
To the lovers' dream we soar.
I've been walking, walking these shores all my days
But with you by my side I am walking on the waves.
