We’ll Be Together Again - Dougie MacLean

We’re held in the motion as it moves us along

Never knowing quite where it might lead

And from mountain to ocean we try to be strong

We bend to the ultimate need

Of the hopes and the fears of the yet to be born

Determined we nourish their seed

And if the spirit is willing and the rivers don’t rise

And the light doesn’t disappear out of our eyes

And adventure stays with us with its pain and surprise

We’ll be together again

And if the line takes the strain and the rope doesn’t break

And the venom stays asleep in the tooth of the snake

And we don’t hold against us the mistakes that we make

We’ll be together again

Oblivious love when it’s clear and it’s young

It waits for the chance to shine through

And brother and sister from one we have come

And we wait for the chance to renew

With the dreams and the schemes of the innocent years

That sing from the place where we grew

And if the spirit is willing and the rivers don’t rise

And the light doesn’t disappear out of our eyes

And adventure stays with us with its pain and surprise

We’ll be together again

And if the line takes the strain and the rope doesn’t break

And the venom stays asleep in the tooth of the snake

And we don’t hold against us the mistakes that we make

We’ll be together again
