When you go will you send back |
|
A letter from America? |
|
Take a look up the railtrack |
|
From Miami to Canada |
|
Broke off from my work the other day |
|
I spent the evening thinking about |
|
All the blood that flowed away |
|
Across the ocean to the second chance |
|
I wonder how it got on when it reached the promised land? |
|
When you go will you send back |
|
A letter from America? |
|
Take a look up the railtrack |
|
From Miami to Canada |
|
I've looked at the ocean |
|
Tried hard to imagine |
|
The way you felt the day you sailed |
|
From Wester Ross to Nova Scotia |
|
We should have held you |
|
We should have told you |
|
But you know our sense of timing |
|
We always wait too long |
|
When you go will you send back |
|
A letter from America? |
|
Take a look up the railtrack |
|
From Miami to Canada |
|

Sutherland no more |
|
Lewis no more |
|
Skye no more |
|
(3x) |
|
I wonder my blood |
|
Will you ever return |
|
To help us kick the life back |
|
To a dying mutual friend |
|
Do we not love her? |
|
I think we all claim we love her |
|
Do we have to roam the world |
|
To prove how much it hurts? |
|
When you go will you send back |
|
A letter from America? |
|
Take a look up the railtrack |
|
From Miami to Canada |
|
Bathgate no more |
