The Skye Boat Song - Reimagined Lyrics

Sing me a song of a lass that is gone

Say, could that lass be I

Merry of soul she sailed on a day

Over the sea to Skye

Footprints of sand

Following those who walked

And wondered and sighed

Step by step

I go where they lead

And hold my heart open wide

I hear them

Sing me a song of a lass that is gone

Say, could that lass be I

Merry of soul she sailed on a day

Over the sea to Skye

Just once, I look back

A wave breaks the sand

And past and present collidе

Who I thought I knew

Thought she knew mе too

She was washed away with the tide

Sing me a song of a lass that is gone

Say, could that lass be I

Merry of soul she sailed on a day

Over the sea to Skye

Billow and breeze, islands and seas

Mountains of rain and sun

All that was good, all that was fair

All that was me is gone

Left in its place, a feeling of freedom

A knowing that could not fail

If you ask who I am

I couldn't say

But I could tell you a tale

I'd sing you a song of a lass that is gone

Say, could that lass be I?
