The Call of the Highlands

[Verse] The heather bends beneath the breeze A whisper runs through ancient trees The stag stands still The morning near A quiet breath The world unclear Shadows stretch The sun takes hold A land of legends Fierce and bold [Prechorus] Can you hear it Soft and low? The rising tide The undertow [Chorus] Rise Oh rise The Highlands call! Through storm and stone We’ll face it all The drums They pound The strings will soar The fight awaits on distant shore [Verse 2] The loch lies deep Its waters cold A mirror of the tales once told A cry of gulls The sky turns red The echoes wake the ancient dead Blades will clash And hearts will burn A hero’s fate at every turn [Chorus] Rise Oh rise The Highlands call! Through storm and stone We’ll face it all The drums They pound The strings will soar The fight awaits on distant shore [Bridge] The earth it trembles Hillsides quake The clash of clans The lives at stake A fleeting glance A fleeting chance Through mists of time The spirits dance
