dougie maclean - the boatbuilders lyrics

Loading...

i was there on the cold -ssynt hills
i heard the hunger cry the tyrants laughing
i heard the young men say goodbye
to the place where their young dreams were grown

there’s a land somewhere
where we can build our freedom
there’s a land somewhere
where our children will grow strong
and if our lives should be spared
we’ll need no other reason to sail on, to sail on

on i stood on the sh0r-s at saint anne
and watched them building boats to trade the oceans
and saw the preacher raise his hands
saying children it’s time to move on

there’s a land somewhere
where we can build our freedom
there’s a land somewhere
where our children will grow strong
and if our lives should be spared
we’ll need no other reason to sail on, to sail on

i watched from the white waipu sands
saw them drop their sails and throw their anchors
i saw the old men shake each other’s hands
saying brothers now i think we are home

there’s a land somewhere
where we can build our freedom
there’s a land somewhere
where our children will grow strong
and if our lives should be spared
we’ll need no other reason to sail on, to sail on
