Mary of Skye
When the long shadows fall and the sun goes to rest
Behind the dark Cuillins away in the West
And its beautiful Mary so lonely for by
Since you left me alone on the Island of Skye
I've walked by the shore when the long day is through
I hear the cows calling, they're calling for you
And the sea breezes whisper your name with a sigh
Oh come home lovely Mary to the Island of Skye
If my heart were young blackbird so high in the air
I would fly to your window and sing for you there
And the sounds o my creeding would fill up the sky
Come home to me Mary and the Island of Skye
Like the waves of the ocean that break on the shore
The memory of Mary returns oer and oer
So come home to a heart that is yours til I die
Ere it break for you Mary on the Island of Skye
Ere it break for you Mary on the Island of Skye
Behind the dark Cuillins away in the West
And its beautiful Mary so lonely for by
Since you left me alone on the Island of Skye
I've walked by the shore when the long day is through
I hear the cows calling, they're calling for you
And the sea breezes whisper your name with a sigh
Oh come home lovely Mary to the Island of Skye
If my heart were young blackbird so high in the air
I would fly to your window and sing for you there
And the sounds o my creeding would fill up the sky
Come home to me Mary and the Island of Skye
Like the waves of the ocean that break on the shore
The memory of Mary returns oer and oer
So come home to a heart that is yours til I die
Ere it break for you Mary on the Island of Skye
Ere it break for you Mary on the Island of Skye
