robin laing - the union canal كلمات الأغنية

[chorus]
fountainbridge to falkirk, over almondell
by ratho and linlithgow weaves a magic spell
fountainbridge to falkirk, over almondell
follow the windings of the union c_n_l
follow the windings of the union c_n_l

[verse 1]
as a child i was enchanted by swans among the reeds
tadpoles in my jamjar, minnows in the weed
gazing from the towpath, on my hands and knees
sunlight on the water, the wind in the willow trees
thinking on those early days, i was always there
swinging out on tarzan ropes, drop in for a dare
summer was the magic time, but winter had its day
skating on the ice until the daylight slipped away
[chorus]
fountainbridge to falkirk, over almondell
by ratho and linlithgow weaves a magic spell
fountainbridge to falkirk, over almondell
follow the windings of the union c_n_l
follow the windings of the union c_n_l

[verse 2]
the union is a quiet place, a relic from the past
see the old stone bridges, they were made to last
it’s just a sad backwater, lazy, deep and slow
a sleepy road that used to be a moving picture show
for once the traffic pulsed along, a beat that had no rest
lifeline for the lothians, a gateway to the west
passengers by the thousands, scows of coal and grain
the union carried everything before the railways came

[verse 3]
a casualty of progress, stranded high and dry
the union was discarded, left to waste and die
broken and neglected, falling to decay
all those weary winter days, lonely, cold and grey
those winter years are past now,the water feels the sun
the fight against the brambles and silting up is won
narrow boats and barges steer the old c_n_l
slipping through the countryside that i have loved so well
you might also like
[chorus]
fountainbridge to falkirk, over almondell
by ratho and linlithgow weaves a magic spell
fountainbridge to falkirk, over almondell
follow the windings of the union c_n_l
follow the windings of the union c_n_l
