the isle of eigg - katherine priddy lyrics

if you wander over west where the hills lie all clothed in deep green
down to black seas where the seals slip unseen
and in the arisaig of nowhere, there’s a boat that will go there
bring whisky for waves and let the spray leave you clean

there she rises out of mist to the sounds of the pipes on her shores
they sing of men in a land with no laws
and by the dawn, you’ll be losing brain cells while you’re boozing
thеy’ll leave you wheeling like gulls, but you’ll comе back for more

the night’s all but gone, but we’re still holding on
my lips have turned blue and her hair was blue too
i’ve lost all my friends, blown my brains out to sea
oh eigg, you have cracked it, but i think you’ve cracked me
the music won’t end till we’re all round the bend
and i can’t feel my face but in this sacred place
high rocks surrounding us, thick mist enshrouding us
our own secret isle where the world can’t get hold of us

and as we stagger back to boats that will tear us away from her shores
part of my heart in her harbour stays moored
and though she breeds bad behaviour, her beauty will save ya
if it’s freedom you need, then let the isle be your cure

- katherine priddy lyrics
