Verse 1 Verse 2 Verse 3 |
Refrain: Mull of Kintyre, oh mist rolling in from the sea
My desire is always to be here, Oh Mull of Kintyre Far have I traveled and much have I seen Darkest of mountains with valleys of green Past painted deserts the sun sets on fire As he carries me home to the Mull of Kintyre Refrain Sweep through the heather like deer in the glen Carry me back to the days I knew then Nights when we sang like a heavenly choir Of the life and the times of the Mull of Kintyre Refrain Smiles in the sunshine and tears in the rain Still take me back where my memories remain Flickering embers go higher and higher As they carry me back to the Mull of Kintyre Refrain x 2 |
