Tide Lines (Scotland)
Watch the Stars
I took a lot for granted waiting on you girl
I've seen the seats of empires right out across the world
When providence affords us all our broken dreams
Through chance and misconceptions nothing's as it seems
[Pre-Chorus]
In the eyes of the unrepetant
In the soul of the holy man
In the heart of the loving mother
In the dreams of the traveling band
[Chorus]
We can dance till morning
And we can watch the stars
Or we can stay right where we are
If you tell a fortune, if you can read the skies
If you can call the honest man from a false disguise
Then you'd in debt to no one, you're tethered to no chain
I wish you well, bid you adieu till we meet again
[Pre-Chorus]
In the touch of a perfect stranger
In the pain of a broken heart
In the innocence of children
In the end and in the start
[Chorus]
We can dance till morning
And we can watch the stars
Or we can stay right where we are
[Instrumental]
In the eyes of the unrepetant
In the soul of the holy man
In the heart of the loving mother
In the dreams of the traveling band
In the touch of a perfect stranger
In the pain of a broken heart
In the innocence of children
In the end and in the start
We can dance till morning
(We can dance till morn)
And we can watch the stars
(We can watch the stars)
Or we can stay right where we are
