Come gather in my lungs Scottish wind
and belt out your blackest poems as the sea around you sings
When that drone takes to the air a single note to raise my hair
carry songs beyond my lungs cold Scottish wind
Come fall upon my shoulders Scottish rain
and dissolve all of the worry that has hunched this back of mine
So let the hurt run down the drain to the resevoir
One day I'll add a drop of my own worries to a dram
Gather heavy in these lungs Scottish wind
all the fat smoke and the ether of the grouse that clipped your wings
and I will cough just like my grandad and his grandpa before him
All belief into these lungs oh Scottish wind
Come burn around my body Scottish blood
I'll try not to spill a drop, oh I'm sure you spilled enough
and the English f****** rule won't mean nothing to these towns
I'll run forever in my veins bold Scottish blood
Bring the whisper to my mouth soft Scottish wind
Just enough to say "I love you" to the girl who keeps me sane
take the stupid things I've said, blow them miles and miles away
Thank you in advance Scottish wind
Thank you in advance Scottish wind
and belt out your blackest poems as the sea around you sings
When that drone takes to the air a single note to raise my hair
carry songs beyond my lungs cold Scottish wind
Come fall upon my shoulders Scottish rain
and dissolve all of the worry that has hunched this back of mine
So let the hurt run down the drain to the resevoir
One day I'll add a drop of my own worries to a dram
Gather heavy in these lungs Scottish wind
all the fat smoke and the ether of the grouse that clipped your wings
and I will cough just like my grandad and his grandpa before him
All belief into these lungs oh Scottish wind
Come burn around my body Scottish blood
I'll try not to spill a drop, oh I'm sure you spilled enough
and the English f****** rule won't mean nothing to these towns
I'll run forever in my veins bold Scottish blood
Bring the whisper to my mouth soft Scottish wind
Just enough to say "I love you" to the girl who keeps me sane
take the stupid things I've said, blow them miles and miles away
Thank you in advance Scottish wind
Thank you in advance Scottish wind
