It takes a long time to get over there
Nearly seven hours in the air
But if that's where my love lies waiting for me
Then seven hours it'll have to be
So I'll pack my bags and leave this place
With no money in my pocket but a smile on my face
I'll leave the key on a plate by the door
Cos I don't know that
I'll be comin' back here any more
Cos I'm lookin' for a long time love
Oh yeah I'm lookin' for a long time love
I'm gonna find those eyes, see that look
Paste back the pages in the record book
He took my heart, stole my soul
Dipped me into the sugar bowl
And before he traveled to his land
He smiled at me and took my hand
Said Baby Baby come be with me
Come flyin' over the briny sea
It takes a long time to get over there
Nearly seven hours in the air
But if that's where my love lies waiting for me
Then seven hours it'll have to be
Cos I'm lookin' for a long time love
Oh yeah I'm lookin' for a long time love
So air and water, earth and fire
Carry me safe to my desire
Never make me further roam
From my most beloved newfound home
Oh Lord above who knowest all
Who seest even the sparrow's fall
Bless my journey, fly with me
From the brave hills of Scotland
To the land of the free
