[00:00.70]Stornoway - November Song
[00:11.45]As I was following the road back to our house
[00:16.32]Deeper than blue was the dusk through the trees
[00:21.01]With the last of the leaves clinging on like my mother's hand
[00:25.89]Cold as the sandpaper wind on my cheeks
[00:33.95]Over the river and under the railway
[00:41.89]Moonlight in silver the ribbon of blue
[00:45.08]And the phone lines were whistling like my mother's breathing
[00:51.14]And my eyes were streaming
[00:55.20]There's a clock on my wall
[01:00.83]Sometimes I hear it in my dreams
[01:09.01]But I won't be afraid of the changes a comin'
[01:19.83]While I know a love that is sure as the morning
[01:21.12]
[01:30.74]There's a light in the clubhouse
[01:34.56]A light in the chapel
[01:39.18]A light in the hallway left on by an angel
[01:41.13]And I creep up the stairs and I pause at the threshold
[01:47.95]To take off my boots and my clothes in the dark
[01:51.94]With my nose like a fox and my skin like a chicken
[01:59.26]I steal into my bed where it's warm as an oven
[02:07.63]And you feel like the bread made in my mother's kitchen
[02:12.76]And we're peaceful as a candle
[02:23.32]And the clock on my wall
[02:25.51]Sometimes I hear it in my dreams
[02:29.83]But I won't be afraid of the changes a comin'
[02:35.82]While I know a love that won't break with the dawn
[02:41.89]No, I won't be afraid of the darkness a comin'
[02:45.63]No, I won't be afraid of the darkness a comin'
[02:58.46]While I know a love that's sure as the morning
[03:02.34]
