Mull of Kintyre Lyrics

Mull Of Kintyre
Oh Mist Rolling In From The Sea,
My Desire Is Always To Be Here
Oh Mull Of Kintyre

Far Have I Traveled And Much Have I Seen
Dark Distant Mountains With Valleys Of Green.
Past Painted Deserts The Sunset's On Fire
As He Carries Me Home To The Mull Of Kintyre.

Mull Of Kintyre
Oh Mist Rolling In From The Sea,
My Desire Is Always To Be Here
Oh Mull Of Kintyre

Sweep Through the Heather Like Deer In The Glen
Carry Me Back To The Days I Knew Then.
Nights When We Sang Like A Heavenly Choir
Of The Life And The Time Of The Mull Of Kintyre.

Mull Of Kintyre
Oh Mist Rolling In From The Sea,
My Desire Is Always To Be Here
Oh Mull Of Kintyre

Smiles in the sunshine
And tears in the rain
Still take me back to where my memories remain
Flickering embers growing higher and higher
As they carry me back to the Mull of Kintyre

Mull Of Kintyre
Oh Mist Rolling In From The Sea,
My Desire Is Always To Be Here
Oh Mull Of Kintyre

Mull Of Kintyre
Oh Mist Rolling In From The Sea,
My Desire Is Always To Be Here
Oh Mull Of Kintyre

Apparently the Mull of Kintyre is a European(?) landmark, similar to The Grand Canyon in the U.S. I'm not sure where it is.... Scotland, perhaps (that would explain the bagpipes).

This was a big, BIG worldwide hit for Paul, but did very little on the U.S. singles charts.

Man this brings me back! My dad used to sing this song to me when i was a wee bairn to get me to sleep on a night.

Where does the time go? Just having a bit of a "reminicing" moment here... excuse me, my eye seems to be leaking.....

Such a beautiful song......

"The Son sets on fire as He carries me home."

Just an interpretation, but it would explain who the "He" is in that line.
