[00:00.13] We Were Giants - Stornoway
[00:20.52] There were great grey skies
[00:23.99] On the great grey ocean
[00:27.07]
[00:33.92] There were rusting cars
[00:37.25] On the rusting hills
[00:40.72]
[00:45.27] Tell me of the time
[00:47.30] We could walk for miles
[00:50.72] On a road to nowhere
[00:57.12]
[00:58.59] Tell me of the time
[01:00.18] We were happy as we staggered
[01:03.54] Through the fields
[01:05.55] With the lights of the house in our minds
[01:10.28]
[01:11.90] Did we lift up the roof
[01:14.99] From the walls when we arrived
[01:18.27]
[01:19.01] Did we step right into the bedroom
[01:23.60]
[01:35.22] Tell me of the time
[01:36.69]
[01:37.28] There were deep dark lakes
[01:40.55] In the scree torn valleys
[01:44.33]
[01:50.58] I can see your face in the failing light
[01:57.11]
[02:01.81] Tell me of the time no one in this world
[02:06.62]
[02:07.24] Knew where we were going
[02:13.63]
[02:15.26] Tell me of the time
[02:16.69]
[02:32.05] Tell me of the time we were happy
[02:35.21] As we staggered through the fields
[02:38.90] With the lights of the house in our minds
[02:44.29]
[02:45.18] Did we lift up the roof
[02:48.25] From the walls when we arrived
[02:51.54]
[02:52.29] Did we step right into the bedroom
[02:58.62] Did we slide into sleep
[03:01.87] With the future in our heads
[03:05.45] Or did we climb on the ruins of our castle
[03:10.80]
[03:11.85] Did we see the curve of the earth
[03:16.46] From where we stood side by side
[03:20.54]
[03:22.18] With the clouds around our ankles
[03:27.44]
[03:38.47] Tell me of the time
[03:39.88]
[03:40.64] When the nights were colder baby
[03:45.25] Tell me of the time
[03:46.67]
[03:47.25] You and I were closer baby
[03:51.84] Tell me of the time
[03:53.27]
[03:53.88] There were great grey skies
[03:57.34] On the great grey ocean
[04:05.88]
