For glory and fame I wandered the Earth And now I've come back to the place of my birth Where shadows turn human, I see mountain streams Ghosts of buried centuries in my shattered dreams Winds and heavy rain beneath Scottish skies Winds and heavy rain but shining eyes I play the tunes for my brothers and Glen The woods of my childhood call me again For the colours of freedom so far, I did roam 'Cause I am the piper, and I'm coming home ♪ The sound of the drums from the hills far away Like a thunder they roar and call me to stay As a sailor I soldier, a brave ancient Scott I play my tunes for the freedom and a life full of rock Winds and heavy rain beneath Scottish skies Winds and heavy rain but shining eyes I play the tunes for my brothers and Glen The woods of my childhood call me again For the colours of freedom so far, I did roam 'Cause I am the piper, and I'm coming home ♪ Winds and heavy rain beneath Scottish skies Winds and heavy rain but shining eyes I play the tunes for my brothers and Glen The woods of my childhood call me again For the colours of freedom so far, I did roam 'Cause I am the piper, and I'm coming home
