Runrig - Empty Glens lyrics

<b>Empty Glens</b> by <i>Runrig</i><br />ooking out on all that's been<br />

On all that is and all that's beyond time<br />

I close my eyes in isolation<br />

<br />

Here's where the word was sown<br />

All that's grown and all that's passed like ghosts<br />

Through the child to highland generations<br />

<br />

Now we walk in empty glens<br />

Rushes blowing in the wind<br />

A voice that's calling you again<br />

To come back home<br />

<br />

Where have they gone, where have they gone<br />

Gone to illusion everyone<br />

In the darkest heart, the pride of man<br />

Will walk alone<br />

<br />

Science breaking down the door<br />

And all the hoards go rushing through for more<br />

All the thrills of the world, and all her idols<br />

<br />

Here the water washed us clean<br />

A deeper peace for all our keenest sins<br />

Washed in these clear, clear crystal fountains<br />

<br />

Now we walk in empty glens<br />

Rushes blowing in the wind<br />

A voice that's calling you again<br />

To come back home<br />

<br />

Where have they gone, where have they gone<br />

Gone to illusion everyone<br />

In the darkest heart, the pride of man<br />

Will walk alone
