letter from america
Singer:proclaimers, the
when you go will you send back
take a look up the railtrack
broke off from my work the other day
i spent the evening thinking about
all the blood that flowed away
across the ocean to the second chance
i wonder how it got on when it reached the promised land?
when you go will you send back
take a look up the railtrack
the way you felt the day you sailed
from wester ross to nova scotia
but you know our sense of timing
when you go will you send back
take a look up the railtrack
to help us kick the life back
i think we all claim we love her
do we have to roam the world
to prove how much it hurts?
when you go will you send back
take a look up the railtrack
irvine no more. bathgate no more
