Lyrics
Normandy Sand
©, Willie McCulloch, 2005
When I was young?past the age of nineteen
The prettiest girl my eyes ever seen
Her hair was sweet as a flowerin` rose
O` How I dream as the fightin` grows
Held deep in this trench with the moon above
As rifles fire?I hold my love
This picture of you in a trembling hand
All covered with blood in the Normandy Sand
Aye, my lass forever
I will be with thee
Both of us taegether
Far across the English sea
Remember the day we spent by the sea
Down Pittenweem Harbour you flirted with me
The water was cold, filled with seaweed and stones
So far away from these broken young bones
O`Come tae me as I take my last breath
An` hold my head intae glorious death
Soft music plays from a colliery band
As I fade away?in the Normandy Sand
Aye, my lass forever
I will be with thee
Both of us taegether
Far across the English sea
