Lyrics:
We listened into the IceageAnd we built up man round the PictsAnd the daybreak hammered out warningTo the weakWe dreamed on moor with passionAnd on the long lochs bluer than eyes'Till the mists of bygone agesheard our criesI've seen us among thousandsAll of one name waiting to runAnd when the charge came heather on heartbeatSteel on gunThe old rock leaves us with fossilFrom the ancient pagan ritesFrom the universal inroadsback to ChristTransmitting, transmittingBreaking down the wireTransmitting, transmittingBreaking down the wire As we look out over the morningAnd the days of this life's springAnd the joy of Gaelic's lifebloodMade me singWatching your beauty on this journeyWith the lick of youth in your eyesLet us sow this olden heartlandReap in timeTransmitting, transmittingBreaking down the wireTransmitting, transmittingBreaking down the wire
