about

Inspired by the view of the beautiful Tay, seen from Magdalen Green's grassy vantage point.

lyrics

On Magdalen Green, I stare at the scene:
The Tay and the bridge before me.
This river is bright, reflecting the light,
A tiny white bird flies over me.

I cross over the track, with just a glance back
The sparkling water is calling me.
This river is bright, reflecting the light,
The wee dove of peace still follows me.

What do you know, where do you go
Up in the clouds, in the sky
What can you see as you look down on me?
How does it feel when you fly?

On Magdalen Green, I stare at the scene,
My wee bird has flown o'er the river now.
She's gone without trace, and leaves only grace.
And peace, oh peace like I've never known.

2013
