Letter from America(Live at the Greenbelt Festival, 28 August 1988) - The Proclaimers

作词：Charlie Reid/Craig Reid

When you go

Will you send back

A letter from America

Take a look up the rail track

From Miami to Canada

Wellbore off from my work

The other day I spent the evening thinking

About all the blood that flowed away

Across the ocean to

The second chance

I wonder how it go on

When it reached

The promised land

When you go

Will you send back

A letter from America

Take a look up the rail track

From Miami to Canada

I've looked at the ocean

Tried hard to imagine

The way you felt

The day you from westar ross

To nova scotia

We should held you

We should told you

But you know our

Sense of timing

We always wait too long

When you go

Will you send back

A letter from America

Take a look up

The rail track

From Miami to Canada

Locater no morgue

Sutherland no more

Lewis no more

Skye no more

Locater no more

Sutherland no more

Lewis no more

Skye no more

Locater no more

Sutherland no more

Lewis no more

Skye no more

I wonder my blood

Will you ever return

To help us kick

The life back

To a dying mutual friend

Do we not love her

I think we'll

Tell you about

Do we have

To roam the world

To prove how much it hurts

When you go

Will you send back

A letter from America

Take a look up

The rail track

From Miami to Canada

Bathgate no more

Linwood no more

Methyl no more

Irvine no mores

Bathgate no mores

Linwood no mores

Methyl no mores

Irvine no mores

Bathgate no mores

Linwood no mores

Methyl no more

Irvine no more

Bathgate no more

Linwood no more

Methyl no more
