WALKING INTO WHITE
Words and music by Sarah McQuaid
Recorded on Walking Into White (2015)
They hadn’t long to go
That afternoon
The light on the moor was gold
The distant mountains shone
They were chatting as they strolled
In make-believe
Of ships in days of old
And pirate thieves
The boy glanced back
The way they’d come
He said hello, that’s strange
The hill we just walked down is gone
The clouds have blotted out the sun
And everything has changed
The fog came down
A white cloud on the ground
She said we’ll be all right
Just keep walking into white
Across the moor they go
Trying to feel their way
Hold my hand, take it slow
It’s going to be okay
The fog came down
A white cloud on the ground
She said we’ll be all right
Just keep walking into white
