Going To Scotland Lyrics

There was a barn owl trapped in the rafters

The ground underneath us was wet and cold

We heard the owl thrashing about

Trying desparately to get out

We stood outside and watched the night unfold

We watched the sun go down on scotland

And I watched the moon come up over you

I took your hips in my hands and I threw you down

To the new found rich brown deep wet ground

Had a vision of you burning on my mind

We watched the sun go down on scotland

And I watched the moon come up over you

When a pack of dogs went silently past us

We knew we'd been given fair warning

But that was the only thing we knew
