The Bute Lullaby

Time and tide will always ride the morning cross the bay

For all the years, all the tears, you rise and turn each day

Verse

Seagulls fly, weave and cry

Dreaming a dream above the blue

Mountains high, endless sky

Dreaming a dream of love and you

Dreaming a dream of love and you

Chorus and repeat verse with:

Sleepy ferry rolling in

So, will another day begin

Easy waves upon the shore,

Morning calls at every door

Chorus and repeat verse with:

Seals are playing with the surf

Where the ocean meets the earth

Oyster-catchers on the sand

Where I turn to take your hand

Chorus
