I was roaming far from home
Far from the town that I left behind
Out in the wild; under open sky

Found myself in a field of green
Fairest of lands that I ever saw
The wind was different there; under open sky

Wind - whiped the tears off my face
Light - shone a way through the haze
Clouds cast shadows on fields below
Rain fell but was no longer cold

Felt I was stranded out of time
Gently touched by the breath of the Gods
Colours primeval; under open sky

Wind...

And the world may be falling
Still the pipes are calling me home

Highland winds you own my soul
Gladly I laid it in your hands
Let me roam in these green, green lands
And never shall I grow old

I believe I could sit here a thousand years
Feeding on air; watching nothing change
Thinking this is a good place to die
This is a good place to die

Sad was the day when I had to go
Back to the town that I left behind
Enamoured for life; under open sky

But in my mind this land´s forever clear
And in my thoughts I will travel there
To ease all pain and calm my fear; under open sky
A piece of me remains; under open sky
I left my heart; under open sky

Highland winds you own my soul...

Thinking this is a good place to die
But a better place to live
