Here's my best shot at Archie's lyrics. I've used parenthesis to indicate a guess for the word I can't catch and can't remember. I'll try to remember to ask him about it. If you are in California you might ask him yourself since he'll touring there in November.

Bonnie Border Lass by Archie Fisher "Windward Away" is available here:

I've watched and waited by the door, o' monys the village hall
To see you swirl across the floor, while I stood next the wall,
No great Scots Grey* nor grenadier* in courage could surpass
Asking o' a dance to steer wi' my bonnie border lass

Though fleet of foot, all partners part. Our time is fleeter still
Through the years you've danced your heart,in a Lancers* o'love's will
The fairest flower will fade until she shuns the looking glass
But I hold the scented petals still, for my bonnie border lass

I ken not whar you rest your head at the dying o' the day
In humble cot or feather bed, or deep below the clay
I only know although my dreams of (warmer) days have passed
That the face that through the firelight gleams is my bonnie border lass

In that bright land beyond life's shore where time has ceased to be
And lovers share forevermore each other's company
I'll search amidst the throng for you and when I hold you fast
Then I will sing this song for you, my bonnie border lass
Until that day I'll long for you, my bonnie border lass

*Scots Grey http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Royal_Scots_Greys
*grenadier= I assume he's referring to the horse grenadiers
*a Lancers = a Quadrille
