Skinner & T'witch's new single, 'The Bute Lullaby', a gentle song written whilst Skinner & T'witch were visiting Bute, back in March 2017, is now finished and due for release. Coming to a folk/acoustic/roots radio show near you very soon (hopefully!)...


'The Bute Lullaby' features the fiddle and mandolin of the multi-talented, multi-instrumentalist Ian Fairbairn (The Mighty Doonans/Aiken's Drum/Jack the Lad etc..).


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

(C) Steve Skinner 2019
