Baz Chapman
An upbeat pop song parodying Skye Boat Song and giving a modern-day perspective of a couple who have fallen in love with this magical Scottish island.
Sing me a song of a heart that is won.
Say, could that heart be mine?
Joy in my soul as we crossed on that day
Over the bridge to Skye
Bring me again to the memory of here,
Bring me the isle that shined.
Bring me the place, now bring me the time,
Bring me the dream that's mine.
Island and sea,
Mountain and breeze,
Sunshine and rain,
Now I can't wait to see you again.
So take me away across the sea,
For I left my heart behind,
And the glory of life glows in my soul
When the Misty Isle is mine.
We're going to where the eagle flies
Up above the mountains so high,
And I'm counting the days 'til we are crossing
Over the bridge, over the sea to Skye.
