INTRO
Away to the westward,

I'm longing to be,
Where the beauties of heaven

unfold by the sea
I'm longing to be,

Where the beauties of heaven

unfold by the sea
Where the beauties of heaven

unfold by the sea
unfold by the sea
Where the sweet purple heather

blooms fragrant and free
On a hiII-top,
high above the Dark Island
Oh Isle of my childhood

I'm dreaming ofthee

As the steamer leaves Chan,

and passes Tiree
I'm dreaming ofthee

As the steamer leaves Chan,

and passes Tiree
As the steamer leaves Chan,

and passes Tiree
and passes Tiree
Soon I'll capture the magic,

that lingers for me

When I'm back, once more upon,
the Dark Island
True gem ofthe hebrides,

bathed in the light

of the midsummer dawning,

that follows the night
How I yern for the cry,

ofthe seagulls in flight
As they circle high

above the Dark Island
Oh Isle of my childhood

I'm dreaming ofthee

As the steamer leaves Chan,

and passes Tiree
I'm dreaming ofthee

As the steamer leaves Chan,

and passes Tiree
As the steamer leaves Chan,

and passes Tiree
and passes Tiree
Soon I'll capture the magic,

that lingers for me

When I'm back, once more upon,
the Dark Island
When I'm back, once more upon,

the Dark Island .............
