Through these misty eyes I see lonely skies Lonely road to Babylon
Where's my family And my country Heaven knows where I belong
Pack my bags tonight Here's one Jacobite Who must leave or surely die
Put me on a train In the pouring rain Say farewell but don't say goodbye
[Chorus]: Seagull carry me, over land and sea To my own folk, that's where I want to be Every beat of my heart Tears me further apart I'm lost and alone in the dark I'm going home
One more glass of wine Just for auld lang syne And the girl I left behind
How I miss her now In my darkest hour And the way our arms entwine
[Chorus]
And we'll drink a toast To the blood red rose Cheer a while the Emerald Isle
And to the northern lights And the swirling pipes How they make a grown man cry
