Letter from America Lyrics by Freya Mavor, Jane Horrocks, Peter Mullan, Kevin Guthrie, George MacKay

Sunshine On Leith (The Motion Picture Soundtrack)

0

When you go will you send back a letter from America?
Take a look up the railtrack from Miami to Canada

Well
Broke off from my work the other day

I spent the evening thinking
About all the blood that flowed away
Across the ocean to the second chance

I wonder how it go on when it reached the promised land

When you go will send back a letter from America?
Take a look up the railtrack from Miami to Canada

I've looked at the ocean
Tried hard to imagine
The way you felt the day you sailed
From Wester Ross to Nova Scotia
We should have held you
We should have told you

But you know our sense of timing
We always wait too long

When you go will you send back a letter from America?
Take a look up the railtrack from Miami to Canada

Lochaber no morg
Sutherland no more

Lewis no more
Skye no more!
Lochaber no more
Sutherland no more

Lewis no more
Skye no more!
Lochaber no more
Sutherland no more

Lewis no more
Skye no more!

I wonder my blood
Will you ever return
To help us kick the life back to a dying mutual friend?
Do we not love her
I think we all tell you about

Do we have to roam the world to prove how much it hurts?

When you go will you send back a letter from America?
Take a look up the railtrack from Miami to Canada

Bathgate no more
Linwood no more

Methil no more
Irvine no more
Bathgate no more
Linwood no more

Methil no more
Irvine no more
Bathgate no more
Linwood no more

Methil no more
Irvine no more
Bathgate no more
Linwood no more

Methil no more
Lochaber no more
