Lyrics: Clannad. Northern Skyline.

Sit awhile staring at the ocean
Riding high the boats flying motion
Just a smile, tears and emotion
Storm rise on the northern skyline

Shadows are haunting me
Drifting down to the sea

Remember when we used to sing the old songs
Of friends that part to sail to a new land
Without a smile, so long a journey
Storm rise on the northern skyline

Shadows are haunting me
Drifting down to the sea

Rest awhile staring at the mountain
Reaching high, the valley's far below us
See for miles the still and clear horizon
Storm rise on the northern skyline

Shadows are haunting me
Drifting down to the sea
