Oh the light of the morning and the songbirds are calling
This moment is ending too soon
Oh a story I reckon like the bold Corryvreckan
Is told by the sun and the moon
Oh the wind through the barley and the waves rolling calmly
They hum to a half-forgot tune
Oh a love ever turning like bonfires still burning
It’s warmed by the sun and the moon
Oh this moment is ending too soon
Oh Islay, my love, yeah you are the one
That opened my eyes to this view
The stars in the night, the blue and the white
The Bonnie, the Brave and the Tree
They all lead me back home to you
We walk on the shore by old Saligo
Where the edge of the sea meets the sky
The tides push and pull, you call me a fool
When I tell you I’m lost in your eyes
I could drown in your arms tonight
Oh Islay, my love, yeah you are the one
That opened my eyes to this view
The stars in the night, the blue and the white
The Bonnie, the Brave and the Tree
They all lead me back home to you
Oh Isla-la-lay, la-la-la-la-la
The bonny, the brave and the true
Oh Isla-la-lay, la-la-la-la-la
The Bonnie, the Brave and the Tree
They all lead me back home to you
Oh Islay, my love, yeah you are the one
That opened my eyes to this view
The stars in the night, the blue and the white
The Bonnie, the Brave and the Tree
All lead me back home to you

There’s a girl from Aberfeldy, she’s got diamonds on her feet She wraps her wicked fingers around every man she meets She sways just like a serpent, …
Blood And Bone
We were wild ones, runnin’ in the pourin’ rain Bled for each other, but we felt no pain Built a fire out of hopes and dreams Climbed over mountains and sailed …
