Alasdair Gillies sang this song


In the morning I must leave you
I must leave you far behind
Smile for me and hide your sadness
Drive tomorrow from your mind
Far away the drums are beating
And I can no longer stay
For I leave my heart behind, here with you in Stornoway#

Hold me close against your heart love
For tomorrow, I must leave
I off to fight for king and country
And the land across the sea
But I know when battles raging
That my thoughts will ever stray
To the land I leave behind me
Here with you in Stornoway

And someday if God shall spare me
When the battles are o'er
When we raise the flag of freedom
I return to you once more
As the birds go???????????????????????????
