This Darkest Winter

Runrig

rd Fret Intro: (one fast lick 1st then...) On a long dark loch, on a Uist moor Before the winter turned We watched the circle round the moon The storm clouds gathered round So I turned to you, but you were gone So I turned for home alone Over last year's rotting corn I walked Where the harvest winds had blown The Blinding lines have turned away Shadows from your door And my worn heart is young today This darkest winter gone INTERLUDE: (one fast lick 1st then...) Where the darkness whines on an eerie wind In the hour before the dawn We scanned this wasted land for life All seemed void and without form So I turned to you, but you were gone So I stood and watched alone Where the doughty clouds of first light formed Their shapes across the soul The Blinding lines have turned away Shadows from your door And my worn heart is young today This darkest winter gone INTERLUDE: (two fast licks 1st then...) (4x) So I turned my collar to the wind And I asked myself in vain Did I walk out here with you today Or did I come alone? But then I saw a distant sight A heart behind the grey Come shining through the darkest sky Establishing my way The Blinding lines have turned away Shadows from your door But my worn heart is young today This darkest winter gone The Blinding lines have turned away Shadows from your door But my worn heart is young today This darkest winter gone OUTRO: (## fade to end ##)) (4x)
