Highland Carousel

[Intro, Piano Arpeggio, Soft Harp Glissando, Distant Bagpipe] Ohhh ohhh ohhh Instrumental swell in the misty morning light [Verse 1, Gentle Piano, Light Drums] By the river where the old stones sing Accordion breathing like a living thing Footsteps echo on a cobbled dream Bagpipes cry with a silver gleam [Pre-Chorus, Rising Drums, Harp Accents] Feel the rhythm in your chest tonight Keyboard stars begin to shine so bright We are turning like the tide Hearts open wide [Chorus, Full Band, Driving Drums, Bagpipe Lead] Spin me round on the highland carousel Piano bells and the stories we tell Harp strings shimmer under moonlit skies Accordion sighs as the daylight flies Hey hey — we rise and we roam Through the thunder and the foam On this highland carousel we call home [Verse 2, Accordion Featured, Steady Groove] Lantern glow on a weathered face Every scar tells a tale of grace Drums like thunder rolling strong Bagpipes wail our battle song [Pre-Chorus, Ascending progression, Keyboard Pads] Feel the fire beneath our feet Harp and piano gently meet We are sparks in the dark Lighting up the spark [Chorus, Powerful Mixed Vocals, Full Ensemble] Spin me round on the highland carousel Piano bells and the stories we tell Harp strings shimmer under moonlit skies Accordion sighs as the daylight flies Hey hey — we rise and we roam Through the thunder and the foam On this highland carousel we call home [Bridge, Percussion Break, Dramatic twist] Drums — let them roll, let them roll Bagpipes calling to the soul Keyboard waves in a cosmic flow Harp like falling snow [Instrumental Interlude, Bagpipe and Harp Duet] Ohhh ohhh ohhh [Final Chorus, Extended, Gospel Choir Feel] Spin us round on the highland carousel Every note like a sacred spell Piano, harp and the pipes that cry Accordion winds that never die Hey hey — we rise and we roam Through the thunder and the foam On this highland carousel we call home [Outro, Soft Piano, Fading Bagpipe] Ohhh ohhh ohhh The carousel turns… and we are home [End]
