The Jetty Song
I remember when I left you
A cold wind it was blowing
And I knew I'd not forget you
Nor the bonny banks of the Clyde
Now I've found what I was seeking
And I know where I am going
But sometimes I hear you speaking
When I stood by your side
I was standing on the jetty
Overlooking old Loch Lomond
Where your spirit wouldn't let me
Turn away, no turn away
Then I looked toward the Highlands
And I thought of all my roamin'
I pretended this was my land
For a day, just for a day
Oh your face appeared before me
And then I began to cry
I remember all the stories
That you told me long ago
It was time to leave the jetty
It was time to leave Loch Lomond
Oh but you did not forget me
Ever since you watched me go
Oh your face appeared before me
And then I began to cry
I remember all the stories
That you told me long ago
It was time to leave the jetty
It was time to leave Loch Lomond
Oh but you did not forget me
Ever since you watched me go
Ever since you watched me go
A cold wind it was blowing
And I knew I'd not forget you
Nor the bonny banks of the Clyde
Now I've found what I was seeking
And I know where I am going
But sometimes I hear you speaking
When I stood by your side
I was standing on the jetty
Overlooking old Loch Lomond
Where your spirit wouldn't let me
Turn away, no turn away
Then I looked toward the Highlands
And I thought of all my roamin'
I pretended this was my land
For a day, just for a day
Oh your face appeared before me
And then I began to cry
I remember all the stories
That you told me long ago
It was time to leave the jetty
It was time to leave Loch Lomond
Oh but you did not forget me
Ever since you watched me go
Oh your face appeared before me
And then I began to cry
I remember all the stories
That you told me long ago
It was time to leave the jetty
It was time to leave Loch Lomond
Oh but you did not forget me
Ever since you watched me go
Ever since you watched me go
