Lyrics -
          From Greenland      
      The mist was hanging on the hill, 
        The sun was still deciding 
        The old piper called the tune 
        And I was on my way 
        I called out your name 
        So loud you could have heard me 
        And the snow goose flies in the northern sky 
      From Greenland       
      Darkness comes with winter speed 
        They journey far from home 
        Always struggling to survive 
        Ever more to roam 
        They come back to Scotland 
        We’re brothers you and I 
        And the snow goose flies in the northern sky 
        From Greenland 
      Seize the day, for life is short 
        Live it while you can 
        I’ve never seen the highland hill 
        I didn’t want to climb 
        But I will stop to watch the cloud 
        That flies across the moon 
        And the snow goose flies in the northern sky 
        From Greenland 
      From
        Greenland
