Runrig - This Darkest Winter Lyrics
On a long dark loch
On a Uist moor
Before the winter turned
We watched the circle round the moon
And the storm clouds gather round
But you were gone
So I turned for home alone
Over last year's rotting corn I walked
Where the harvest winds had blown
The blinding lines
Have turned away
Shadows from your door
And my worn heart
Is young today
Where the darkness whines
On an eerie wind
In the hour before the dawn
We scanned this wasted land for life
All seemed void and without form
So I turned to you
But you were gone
So I stood and watched alone
Where the doubtless clouds of first light formed
Their shapes across the soul
The blinding lines
Have turned away
Shadows from your door
And my worn heart
Is young today
This darkest winter gone
So I turned by collar
To the wind
And I asked myself in vain
Did I walk out there with you today
Or did I come alone?
But then I saw
A distant sight
A heart behind the grey
Come shining through the darkest sky
Establishing my way
The blinding lines
Have turned away
Shadows from your door
And my worn heart
Is young today
This darkest winter gone
The blinding lines
Have turned away
Shadows from your door
And my worn heart
Is young today
This darkest winter gone

Per questa bella musica, un video di splendide immagini d'inverno. Grazie.
Runrig always reminds me of my mum. She's loved Runrig since the early '90s. I live on a different continent to her now so I just get to Skype sometimes. I miss you, Mum <3
One of the few songs from Donnie that I really enjoy. He has a beautiful voice but (and I know this is counter to what some of you think) I can't hear his soul in the songs the way I can with Bruce. To each his own, they both bring a uniqueness to their time with Runrig.
Stunning images! :)
One of their forgotten best!
@James MacDhomhnaill First time I've heard this song and its nice, also surprised I could read that comment, guess I am learning some haha
One off the best songs ever !!!

brilliant song and band
