Water lapping round my knees
Golden sand beneath my feet
Would mean a lot to me
There's very little you can say
To make those feelings go away
Till you take me
There's nothing more that I prefer
To see the boys and the girls
Step it out with grace and pride
As honesty flows by your side
I cannot run from times hard pressed
To become embittered, dispossessed
Just like some do
And maybe some place I can find
Where wheel and heart become entwined
Like I hope to
And nothing matters more to you
To sit and sing a song that's true
The first one there and last to leave
Sweet memories for you to keep
No easy lesson for me to learn
Just to close those eyes of mock concern
And halt your rush to be sincere
There's more in life for you to fear.
Capercaillie è un gruppo folk scozzese formatosi negli anni '80 da Donald Shaw e con Karen Matheson come voce principale. Il gruppo proviene dall'Argyll, una regione dell'ovest della Scozia, ed prende il nome dal gallo cedrone (Tetrao urogallus), uccello presente solo in Scozia nelle Isole Britanniche. Capercaillie è noto per la sua musica tradizionale scozzese reinterpretata con influenze moderne e sperimentali. Il loro sound caratteristico combina melodie tradizionali, arrangiamenti orchestrali e la potente voce di Matheson. Tra i brani più rappresentativi si ricordano "Ailein Duinn", "The Parting Glass" e "Coigeach". L'album "Còmhla" (1994) è considerato un punto di svolta nella loro carriera, ottenendo grande successo sia in Scozia che all'estero. Capercaillie ha collaborato con numerosi artisti scozzesi e internazionali, contribuendo a diffondere la musica tradizionale scozzese in tutto il mondo.
