Dust

(album: Recovery - 1981)

So lead me to the river
Blood runs thicker than the water
Oh I do believe
Dust will turn the seed
Home

Wrap me in your sheets together
Where my earth heart lies forever
Oh I do believe
Dust will turn the seed
Home

The Lowland Scot with English habits
Has brought me to his lowland manners
Oh I do believe
Dust will turn the seed
Home

No they can't understand
The hole that is in my heart
Oh I do believe
Dust will turn the seed
Home

I've lived my life here with the others
I long to live with you my brothers
Oh I do believe
Dust will turn the seed
Home

And my drum will beat this day
Pounding for the Gael
Oh I do believe
Dust will turn the seed
Home

An end to sighs, all hands unite
In the spring that lies behind this sorrow
Oh I do believe
Dust will turn the seed
Home

Deep the faith and pure the light
That shines inside and guides your people
Oh I do believe
Dust will turn the seed
Home
