Forty Mile Town lyrics

Way down here on the edge of these snows,
I hear a strong wind whine;
Goin` to where the freedom bells ring,
Into the Highlands I must climb.
On this journey, I have been here before,
tryin` to reach the other side;
i just can`t get through the top of these hills,
Without a mountain guide.

Took such a while to find you,
Oh could you show me the way?
To get to the place I once knew,
You`re the only one, so take me through High Landrons.

Up ahead, I know the trailway stops,
From there on, only eagles fly;
Burning (with) visions of the way back to you,
They`re burnin` through the eastern sky.

Now and then I see a shooting star,
Lighting up the silver blue;
It`s shining all the way down the mountain skyway,
Oh, it`s shining straight from you.

Took all my life to find you,
Oh could you show me the way?
To get to the place I once knew,
You`re the only one, so take me through High Landrons.
Up ahead...

Took all my life to find you,
Oh could you show me the way?
To get to the place I once knew,
You`re the only one, so take me through High Landrons.
Up ahead...
