Dark Star (live) (Live) Lyrics

Away to the westward

 

I'm longing to be

Where the beauties of heaven

 

Unfold by the sea

 

Where the sweet purple heather blooms

Fragrant and free

On a hilltop high above

The Dark Island

So gentle the sea breeze

That ripples the bay

 

Where the stream joins the ocean

 

And young children play

On the strand of pure silver

 

I'll welcome each day

 

And I'll roam for every more

 

The Dark Island

 

True gem of the Herbrides

 

Bathed in the light

 

Of the mid-summer dawning

 

That follows the night

How I yearn for the cries

Of the seagulls in flight

As they circle above

 

The Dark Island
