In darkness we do what we can
By daylight we're oblivion
Our hearts so raw and clear
Are turning away
Turning away from here
On the water we have walked
Like the fearless child
What was fastened we've unlocked
Reveiling wonderous wild
And in search of confirmation
We have jumped into the fire
And scrambled with our burning feet
Through uncontrolled desire
In darkness we do what we can
By daylight we're oblivion
Our hearts so raw and clear
Are turning away
Turning away from here
There's a well upon the hill
From our ancient past
Where an age is standing still
Holding strong and fast
And there's those who try to tame it
And carve it into stone
Ah but words can not extinguish it
However hard they're thrown
In darkness we do what we can
By daylight we're oblivion
Our hearts so raw and clear
Are turning away
Turning away from here
On Loch Etachan they have walked
With their highland dreams
By Kilchrenan they have nourished
In the mountain streams
And in searching for acceptance
They have given it away
Only the children of their children
Know the price they had to pay
In darkness we do what we can
By daylight we're oblivion
Our hearts so raw and clear
Are turning away
Turning away from here
In darkness we do what we can
By daylight we're oblivion
Our hearts so raw and clear
Are turning away
Turning away from here
