On holiday
I can see the light from the Western Isles
Faded and white like your western smile
We could live here, you know
Nobody's safe
Caught up in a life that's based online
Struggle and strife from the nine to five
We're just getting by, you know
Cigarettes and black grease tea
Could we feel at home?
ย
Far, far away
I can hear the birds on the Western Isles
Singing in the night like an ancient choir
Oh, how I love you so
Don't worry, baby
You'll be all right with your western smile
Maybe there's a life on the Western Isles
In a few years or so
Cigarettes and black grease tea
Maybe we've been daydreaming
And we're almost home
ย
We're headed for the Western Isles
