Tir a' Mhurain - Runrig

Day was young, desire was stirred

Summer was all but gone

Light was fading from the side of your face

Sinking low in the corn

All that’s constant and wise

I still see in your eyes

It was always this way from the start

Right here where I stand

On the last of the land

But you’re still breaking the heart

Now all I have is rushing right through my hands

Sailing over the seas

Down that tide where fresh and salt combine

All victories are released

We who wrestle the years

Have traded our fears

For a glimpse of ecstasy in the dark

Turning ice in the fire

But still we’re denied

But you’re still breaking the heart

The skies turned red without failure

They held their promise and dread till the last

You put all of my youth in my future

You put the future back into my past

So shine a light and shine it brightly now

You know it all takes its course

And all the many ways I’ve tried so hard

To reach this potent source

On the day behind time

Across the divide

Along the cord came all light out of dark

Now I stand amazed

In this beautiful pain

But you’re still breaking the heart

You’re breaking the heart
