Les Thomson First heard about this on “Living the Skye Life” on YouTube. Been following fur a long time as we totally get what they’re doing, and as soon as I heard it fully it could have been about my own house. Thank you Willie (and Sarah and of course Jack Spaniels) for the inspiration 💜 Favorite track: These Old Walls.

about

This song is about our home, and is dedicated to the people of the Isle of Skye.

lyrics

Stone by stone - by weathered hand
by young, by old
Soul for soul
Father for son
Kin for their own

The seasons come and go
Like tides they ebb and flow
Like lives lived before
We called it home
They called it home

These old walls
Saw a hundred lives
From the days of old
To these days of mine

But long after we’ve gone
These old walls will still be standing strong

Hand by hand
They built these walls
They worked this land
Man for man
They disappeared
Footsteps in the sand

‘Cos people come and go
Like rain in fallen snow
Like lives lived before
We called it home
They called it home

These old walls
Saw a hundred lives
From the days of old
To these days of mine

But long after we’ve gone
These old walls will still be standing strong

The fire burns
The chimney smokes
Beneath the starlit Skye

These old walls
Saw a hundred lives
From the days of old
To these days of mine

But long after we’ve gone
These old walls will still be standing…

These old walls
Saw a hundred lives
From the days of old
To these days of yours and mine

But long after we’ve gone
These old walls will still be standing strong

Whoa - whoa - these old walls will still be standing strong

Whoa - whoa - these old walls will still be standing
