Rocket To The Moon Lyrics - Party On The Moor: 40th Anniversary Concert Live - Runrig

Here hangs an open landscape 

A wild and huge frontier 

From a harsh and a barren wasteland 

Through the grave to the promised field 

You came, you trapped, you charted 

You laid the railroads and the schemes 

And you tamed this land by enterprise 

And by the power of your dreams 

But you made this Clan great 

And you made this nation bloom 

And you rose 

With your people through the new world 

Like a rocket to the moon

Every Lyric From Shawn Mendes' Self-Titled New Album 

Every Lyric From Keith Urban's New Album 'Graffiti U' 

From the olden coasts of Ireland 

From the Hebridean shores 

With the forgotten chosen ones 

Running from Europe in droves 

But you made this Clan great 

And you made this nation bloom 

And you rose 

With your people through the new world 

Like a rocket to the moon 

There's a town in Manitoba 

They say the windows touch the sky 

But across the brine the shipyards close 

In this garden flowers die 

Still the homelands divide us 

Like your blood red brothers of the plains 

But where they grieve a candle still burns 

A prayer from a flicker to a flame

But you made this Clan great 

And you made this nation bloom 

And you rose 

With your people through the new world 

Like a rocket to the moon
