The
sun was high, the fields aglow.
We took the path where the wild winds blow.
Heather thick and purple deep,
where secrets lie
and hellsides lay.
Dancing down the Heather Lane,
feet of flying,
hearts unchained,
raise
a cheer, let joy remain,
dancing down the Heather Lane.
The fiddle sang,
the whistle cried,
the banjo laughed as the day slipped by.
Bold runs, heartbeat steady and true,
a song for me, a song for you.
Dancing down the Heather Lane,
feet of flying,
hearts unchained,
raise a cheer,
let joy remain,
dancing down the Heather Lane.
Hey!
Oh,
the moon is rising silver bright.
The stars will guide us through the night.
A jig, a reel, a spinning round,
laughter echoes,
a timeless sound.
Dancing down the Heather Lane,
feet of flying,
hearts unchained,
raise a cheer,
let joy remain,
dancing down the Heather Lane.
