Highland Romance (Scottish Game)

Morning mist on highland hills As fiddles play their sweet refrain Each move a love story fulfills Like gentle drops of highland rain Two hearts are meeting here tonight Beneath the stars above This ancient game of dark and light Will tell a tale of love When island lights the field of gore The white teeth form my heart An island's shadow claims his fight Black keys bind my soul Then thin lights night through morning sky A white night of dreams so free While Connor's night glides through evening light White night, see three Young Douglas joins their gentle walk Twenty-four As backpacks softly crawl My love Watch love unfold Now Colin's night joins in the dance Through starlit air with grace so rare White night, see three While Blair's pawn takes a gentle chance Through field of six with tender care Black beat, six And Audrey joins with spirits high Nine, I, four As highland romance fills the sky Ancient stones Softly now Tell their tales Gently now Watch our hearts Finally Break their veils Red law flow On Gregor might begin to play His pipe through misty field of three White key, three While Eilidh's shadow finds its way Through field of six so wild and free Black key, six Young Douglas guards the center ground White key, three As love's sweet music flows around When island lights the field of gore The white teeth form my heart An island's shadow claims his fight Black keys bind my soul Then still lays night through morning sky White night, a three, so free While Connor's knife glides through evening light Slight night, see six Young Douglas joins their gentle walk Twenty-four As backpacks softly crawl My love Watch love unfold
