Runrig - Big Sky Lyrics
The light is on me
All time is here
I'm going down to Clachnan
To stem the rush of years
Big sky above me
I get lifted up enraptured
I keep falling at your feet
I'm looking over colour fields
Past the white sands
And our human years
And it's all waiting here
Breaking the seed
It's coming again
Gathering the wind
I'm lifted where I stand
On the never-ending land
I'm coming to sense of home
Wind through the barley
Your early dream
A rising choir of birdsong
Your fields of summer green
It's all passing over
I've no complains
We're just a row of unlit candles
Waiting the gate of saints
I'm living on the borderline
Between the moment
And the shining miles
The far streching stones
All the lines of the sown
It's coming again
Gathering the wind
Returning to claim a harvest
I'm lifted where I stand
On the never-ending land
I'm coming to sense of home
The light of ancient shine
On your ordinary lives
We joyed went to the lines of harvest
So open up the land
Open up the sand
Returning again in Clachnan

Runrig Big Sky Comments
It is favorite music. This version is the first :)
To think that song came from Rory as he attended a family funeral just above clachen sands on the island of usit thus the reference to open up the ground open up the sand. Returing again just a row of unlite candles waitting at the gate of saints. A reference to the grave stones of those who lay in the grave yard
mar sin leat - I think that means goodbye, never had or learnt the gaelic tongue - but will always love and respect everything you have done and will do. Tapadh leat. soraidh slàn le mo charaid, you have decided to move on, I will love your music now and always. Thanks for being there I
will hold you In my heart always. Blue Skies x

Ein Super Song von R U N R I G

Great Song , Concert , Amazing
Runrig are fantastic
I have to say this song is one of the best songs I have ever heard.This is song-writing at it's best.Performed at a very high-level to a very impressive audience!Well done all!
Hører og ser koncerten hvert år til Tønder festival! :)
Fantastisk musik......
@Calopteryx67 Why not check them out when they play in Denmark? They tour here quite often.
iain bain is one of the best drumers in the world great music
I absolutely love Runrigs music - too bad they never play in Sweden! I have been a fan since late 80's and listen to them every day. Bruce's voice is absolutely amazing - wish I had been at this concert - but have it on dvd. =)
Wundervoll....Wonderful
it was in 2003 when they played at Tønder..
what can I say, it was the first time I saw them and didn't know what was coming :D
Of course I was, didn't know what to do of myself! My friend didn't have internet when it happened so I had to feed her with all the information I could find, it was a very odd time.. We agreed we'd do everything we could to show him how happy we were that he was back the next time we saw him, so we also made a big poster saying 'Welcome Back'. He looked very happy when he saw it.
I'm going to see them this year at Tønder, simply can't wait! this time of course nn front row, last time I was actually sitting down!
There's a reason why Denmark is their second home :D we just adore these guys :P
I would so love to meet him, I'm a big fan of him and his guitarplaying. I was so shocked when he fell ill, first concert after I was up front and gave him a bucket of roses :D
I envy you! What's he like?? I've heard he should be a great guy :D
From 5:05 to 5:45 it just sounds amazing..
Malcolm Jones is the man... Wish they'd play this again during their tour :)
