Another Story - Dougie MacLean

He is the farmer and he turns our tired soil

And watches as the water once so cool is brought up to the boil

His tired eyes from relentless seasons burn

And holds him to his every word and all things still left undone

Look now there’s another page another story

Look now there’s another reason why it’s hard to rest in peace

He is the sailor and he rolls on seven seas

And we know he won’t let go till the storm has brought him to his knees

He’ll keep on searching until all the shoals have gone

And there’s not one single dream that he can sail his ship upon

Look now there’s another page another story

Look now there’s another reason why it’s hard to rest in peace

He is the honest man and we all know how he’s been

And we all know his story and we’ve seen it on the silver screen

And though his wisdom we barely try to save

His memory it lingers and it will haunt us to the grave

Look now there’s another page another story

Look now there’s another reason why it’s hard to rest in peace
