the mist covered mountains

Singer:mark knopfler

oh ro soon shall i see them;

oh he ro see them oh see them. oh ro soon shall i see them the

mist covered mountains of home. there shall i visit the place of my birth

and they'll give me a welcome the warmest on earth

all so loving and kind full of music and mirth

in the sweet sounding language of home. oh ro soon shall i see them;

oh he ro see them oh see them. oh ro soon shall i see them the

mist covered mountains of home. there shall i gaze on the mountains again

on the fields and the woods and the burns and the glens

away 'mong the corries beyond human ken

in the haunts of the deer i will roam

oh ro soon shall i see them;

oh he ro see them oh see them. oh ro soon shall i see them the

mist covered mountains of home. hail to the mountains with summits of blue

to the glens with their meadows of sunshine and dew. to the women and men ever constant and true

ever ready to welcome one home.
