Rocket To The Moon - Live; 1999 Remastered Version
Here hangs an open landscape A wild and huge frontier From a harsh and a barren wasteland Through the grave to the promised field
You came, you trapped, you charted You laid the railroads and the schemes And you tamed this land by enterprise And by the power of your dreams
But you made this Clan great And you made this nation bloom And you rose With your people through the new world Like a rocket to the moon
From the olden coasts of Ireland From the Hebridean shores With the forgotten chosen ones Running from Europe in droves
But you made this Clan great Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com And you made this nation bloom And you rose With your people through the new world Like a rocket to the moon
There's a town in Manitoba They say the windows touch the sky But across the brine the shipyards close In this garden flowers die
Still the homelands divide us Like your blood red brothers of the plains But where they grieve a candle still burns A prayer from a flicker to a flame
But you made this Clan great And you made this nation bloom And you rose With your people through the new world Like a rocket to the moon
