You’ll find me sitting at this table with my friend Fin and my friend John | |
My friend Murdaney tells us stories of things long gone, long gone | |
And we may take a glass together, the whisky makes it all so clear | |
It fires our dulled imaginations | |
And I feel so near, so near | |
I feel so near to the howling of the wind | |
Feel so near to the crashing of the waves | |
Feel so near to the flowers in the field | |
Feel so near | |
The old man looks out to the island he says this place is endless thin | |
There’s no real distance here to mention we might all fall in, all fall in | |
No distance to the spirits of the living, no distance to the spirits of the dead | |
And as he turned his eyes were shining | |
And he proudly said, proudly said | |
So we build our tower constructions there to mark our place in time | |
We justify our great destructions as on we climb, on we climb | |
Now the journey doesn’t seem to matter, the destination’s faded out | |
And gathering out along the headland | |
I hear the children shout, children shout |
You' ll find me sitting at this table with my friend Fin and my friend John | |
My friend Murdaney tells us stories of things long gone, long gone | |
And we may take a glass together, the whisky makes it all so clear | |
It fires our dulled imaginations | |
And I feel so near, so near | |
I feel so near to the howling of the wind | |
Feel so near to the crashing of the waves | |
Feel so near to the flowers in the field | |
Feel so near | |
The old man looks out to the island he says this place is endless thin | |
There' s no real distance here to mention we might all fall in, all fall in | |
No distance to the spirits of the living, no distance to the spirits of the dead | |
And as he turned his eyes were shining | |
And he proudly said, proudly said | |
So we build our tower constructions there to mark our place in time | |
We justify our great destructions as on we climb, on we climb | |
Now the journey doesn' t seem to matter, the destination' s faded out | |
And gathering out along the headland | |
I hear the children shout, children shout |
You' ll find me sitting at this table with my friend Fin and my friend John | |

Feel so near to the crashing of the waves | |
Feel so near to the flowers in the field | |
Feel so near | |
