The Good Years
Words: Edwin Morgan
Music: Karine Polwart (Bay Songs Ltd 2006)

Wherever you are
You shall be my star
Flashing near or smouldering far

I am happy when I bask in your light
All I ask is that you may bask

In my mind I hear the sound
Of every happy fount
Fresh as fresh is found

We're singing without tears
We're clinging without fears

Originally recorded for the CD "Ballads of The Book", a lovely collaborative venture between Scottish writers and Scottish musicians thought up by Roddy Woomble and eminent poet Edwin Morgan and released by Chemikal Underground Records in 2007.
