Outlander – The Skye Boat Song (Extended Version)
[Produced by Bear McCreary]
[Chorus: Raya Yarbrough]
Sing me a song of a lass that is gone
Say, could that lass be I?
Merry of soul she sailed on a day
Over the sea to Skye
[Verse 1: Raya Yarbrough]
Mull was astern, Rùm on the port
Eigg on the starboard bow
Glory of youth glowed in her soul
Where is that glory now?
[Chorus: Raya Yarbrough]
Sing me a song of a lass that is gone
Say, could that lass be I?
Merry of soul she sailed on a day
Over the sea to Skye
[Bridge: Raya Yarbrough]
Give me again all that was there
Give me the sun that shone
Give me the eyes, give me the soul
Give me the lass that's gone
[Chorus: Raya Yarbrough]
Sing me a song of a lass that is gone
Say, could that lass be I?
Merry of soul she sailed on a day
Over the sea to Skye
[Pre-Chorus: Raya Yarbrough]
Billow and breeze, islands and seas
Mountains of rain and sun
All that was good, all that was fair
All that was me is gone
[Instrumental Interlude]
[Chorus: Raya Yarbrough]
Sing me a song of a lass that is gone
Say, could that lass be I?
Merry of soul she sailed on a day
Over the sea to Skye
