Walking On the Waves

An island in the sunlight

Laughter in the rain

A whisky in the darkness

It all feels just the same

Watch the sunset over Hynish

See the twilight merge to dawn

Hear the waves caress the shoreline

As the island carries on

I've been walking, walking these shores all my days

But with you by my side I am walking on the waves

I've been walking, walking these shores all my days

But with you by my side I am walking on the waves

There's two lovers on the Machair

And they walk down to the sand

Their silhouettes are on the water

As they paddle hand in hand

And it's a game of sweet surrender

When there's nothing left to say

And there are moments to remember

Once these days are long away

I've been walking, walking these shores all my days

But with you by my side I am walking on the waves

I've been walking, walking these shores all my days

But with you by my side I am walking on the waves

So you look out on the ocean

See the headlands and the strands

And you wonder what horizons

Will shape tomorrow's plan's

And through the turning of the seasons

And the cycle of the days

Every drink's another reason

To let tomorrow sail away

I've been walking, walking these shores all my days

But with you by my side I am walking on the waves

I've been walking, walking these shores all my days

But with you by my side I am walking on the waves

The surging of the ocean

The breakers on the shore

The echoes of our bodies

To the lover's dream we soar

I've been walking, walking these shores all my days

But with you by my side I am walking on the waves

I've been walking, walking these shores all my days

But with you by my side I am walking on the waves

I've been walking, walking these shores all my days

But with you by my side I am walking on the waves
