Knight Gladys (and The Pips) - Every Beat Of My Heart Lyrics

Knight Gladys (and The Pips) - Every Beat Of My Heart lyrics

Rod Stewart

 

 Through these misty eyes I see lonely skies

 Lonely road to Babylon

 Where's my family

 And my country

 heaven knows where I belong

 

 Pack my bags tonight

 Here's one Jacobite

 Who must leave or surely die

 Put me on a train

 In the pouring rain say farewell

 but don't say goodbye

 

 Seagull carry me, over land and sea

 To my own folk, that's where I want to be

 Every beat of my heart

 Tears me further apart

 I'm lost and alone in the dark

 I'm going home

 

 One more glass of wine

 Just for auld lang syne

 And the girl I left behind

 How I miss her now In my darkest hour

 And the way our arms entwine

 

 Seagull carry me, over land and sea

 To my own folk, that's where I want to be

 Every beat of my heart

 Tears me further apart

 I'm lost and alone in the dark

 I'm going home

 

 And we'll drink a toast

 To the blood red rose

 Cheer a while the

 Emerald Isle

 And to the northern lights

 And the swirling pipes

 How they make a grown man cry

 

 Seagull carry me, over land and sea

 To my own folk, that's where I want to be

 Every beat of my heart

 Tears me further apart

 I'm lost and alone in the dark

 I'm going home
