Fiona Ritchie (I Went to Scotland)

(Song lyrics)

The other night I must’a been
in a folksinger’s dream
and there I saw you flickerin’
across my radio screen

I come to fetch you
I come to fetch you
I come to fetch you, Fiona Ritchie

And so I piled a pile of rocks
somewheres out in the noonday sun
I’m gonna keep on piling rocks
’til you’re my onliest one

I come to fetch you
I come to fetch you
I come to fetch you, Fiona Ritchie

For days, for days
the sea, the sea
well the crash and the noise
wasn’t bothering me

the sea, the sea
for days, for days
just to lie in the lap
of your Southerly ways

I come to fetch you
I come to fetch you
I come to fetch you, Fiona Ritchie

Your voice is a kiss, mellifluous
none but a warm-hearted fool
would even bother with this

but still, I come to fetch you
I come to fetch you
I come to fetch you, Fiona Ritchie
