Hearthammer - Runrig

With the eyes of a child

The wonder of it all

I used to search the stars at night

And I felt so safe and small

Sweet sounds from a Mersey town

And my nursery god

And I wanted to ride with Yuri Gagarin

As he circled all around my world

Hearthammer

And I lose control

Hearthammer

Lying under the covers

With the radio on

Settle down with Caroline

As she sailed all summer long

Sweetheart of the rodeo

Mining hearts of gold

I think it was somewhere pre stand-up time

Somewhere post Rubber Soul

Hearthammer

And I lose control

Hearthammer

There was the first caress

There were the Labour years

There was the man who walked the moon

Something you never really believed

The Di Stefano twists

The Charlton goals

Now I’m still here with the eyes of a child

The wonder never grows old

Hearthammer

And I lose control

Hearthammer
