Auld Wives

Auld wives lift

Auld wives lift

How've you gotten here?

Where do you come from?

What do you tell?

I see his face

I see his face

Carved deep into stone

Another mind you've taken away

But I swam across the ocean to find your memory

A trace of all that you have left behind

And the auld wives swore that you were born to die

Without a child for to call out your name

Now I call your name

I call your name

But you can't hear me now

No, you don't recognise my face

Who are you?

Who are you

And why do you call me that?

How dare you call me that?

But I swam across the ocean to find your memory

A trace of all that you've left behind

And the auld wives swore that you were born to die

Without a child for to call out your name

But I call your name

I call your name

I call your name

I call your name

But I swam across the ocean to find your memory

A trace of all that you have left behind

And the auld wives swore that you were born to die

Without a child for to call out your name
