Steve Hackett - Loch Lomond lyrics

Palms hanging over the sparkling water Champagne on ice a coconut surprise Laughter from the rails as yachts set sail With waves crashing over the shores of Loch Lomond Crocodile tears under chandelier Cicadas chatter above the veranda Birds of Paradise smiles and alibis Heard by no-one on the shores of Loch Lomond A merry dance a sarabande in castles made of sand When your world is washed away in the cold light of day Christmas suntan a winter summerland Rhythm of the shingle face tingle Love songs on the surf should I believe the words Since when were you on the shores of Loch Lomond Illusion and facade a crying heavy heart Within the mists that rise from waters of cold ice Loch Lomond A humming bird in snow when darkness is aglow The pain that cracks the shell the breaking of a spell Loch Lomond
