Lyrics

[00:00.01] every beat of my heart
[00:06.30]
[00:14.75] Through these misty eyes
[00:18.28] I see lonely skies
[00:21.92] Lonely road to Babylon
[00:26.65]
[00:27.82] Where's my family
[00:30.53] And my country
[00:33.85] Heaven knows where I belong
[00:40.70]
[00:51.93] Pack my bags tonight
[00:55.62] Here's one Jacobite
[00:58.75] Who must leave or surely die
[01:04.18]
[01:05.49] Put me on a train
[01:08.07] In the pouring rain
[01:11.14] Say farewell but don't say goodbye
[01:16.15]
[01:17.91] Seagull carry me, over land and sea
[01:23.61] To my own folk, that's where I want to be
[01:30.47] Every beat of my heart
[01:36.05] Tears me further apart
[01:42.10] I'm lost and alone in the dark
[01:47.59] I'm going home
[01:51.93]
[01:54.84] One more glass of wine
[01:57.47] Just for auld lang syne
[02:00.63] And the girl I left behind
[02:05.65]
[02:06.87] How I miss her now
[02:09.67] In my darkest hour
[02:12.61] And the way our arms entwine
[02:17.72]
[02:19.70] Seagull carry me, over land and sea
[02:25.20] To my own folk, that's where I want to be
[02:32.08] Every beat of my heart
[02:37.86] Tears me further apart
[02:43.72] I'm lost and alone in the dark
[02:48.95] I'm going home
[02:53.57]
[03:33.17] And we'll drink a toast
[03:36.14] To the blood red rose
[03:39.21] Cheer a while the Emerald Isle
[03:44.81]
[03:44.93] And to the northern lights
[03:48.59] And the swirling pipes
[03:51.67] How they make a grown man cry
[03:56.44]
[03:57.93] Seagull carry me, over land and sea
[04:04.16] To my own folk, that's where I want to be
[04:10.66] Every beat of my heart
[04:16.56] Tears me further apart
[04:22.29] I'm lost and alone in the dark
[04:26.96] I'm going home
[04:32.00]
[04:35.94] Every beat of my heart
[04:41.58] Tears me further apart
[04:47.36] I'm lost and alone in the dark
[04:52.54] I'm going home
[04:58.93] I'm going home
[05:14.33]
[05:16.74] --END--
