Charlotte - Dougie MacLean

From Blair in Athol to Carolina’s green and gold

This way has found us

For times to come and for time that’s growing old

The days roll around us

And we’ll drink to the wild ones

To the laughter of the child ones

To the ones who have broken away

And we’ll drink for their pleasure

Another long island measure

And fall into another new day

We wait for no one we are howling at the moon

And fate’s destination

With heads on fire we will turn another tune

Until dawn’s restoration

And we’ll drink to the wild ones

To the laughter of the child ones

To the ones who have broken away

And we’ll drink for their pleasure

Another long island measure

And fall into another new day

We maybe lost we maybe can’t stand still

Long enough to believe it

But we share the cost and we’ll wander on until

It’s our time to leave it

And we’ll drink to the wild ones

To the laughter of the child ones

To the ones who have broken away

And we’ll drink for their pleasure

Another long island measure

And fall into another new day
