Dougie Maclean - Scythe Song lyrics

I still remember when I first watched him work the blade It was down in the Buckney den My questions tumbled and he said Oh this is not a thing to learn inside a day Stand closely by me and I'll try to show the way You've got to hold it right Feel the distance to the ground Move with a touch so light Until it's rhythm you have found Then you'll know what I know Oh wild are the ways we run When at last untethered out we fly Straight into the burning sun Need no direction, no, not I But it is not a thing to learn inside a day Stand closely by me and I'll try to show the way You've got to hold it right Feel the distance to the ground Move with a touch so light Until it's rhythm you have found Then you'll know what I know So, little dancing girl You want to play a tune One that your heart can fill To help you shine under the moon Well, it is not a thing to learn inside a day Stand closely by me and I'll try to show the way You've got to hold it right Feel the distance to the ground Move with a touch so light Until it's rhythm you have found Then you'll know what I know Then you'll know what I know
