LYRCIS //
Here we both stand
The moon and the stars light the dancefloor
All that we need
Is here in the still of the night
All of the words
Could never describe the wonder
The feeling of peace
When everything is just right
Here we both stand
Longing to hold one another
Never to end
Wrapped in the sweet summer air
Wishing that we
Could stay in this moment forever
Into the night
Young, pure and free
Take my hand
And we’ll go dancing
Underneath the stars
On a beach that’s only ours
Take my hand
And we’ll go dancing
In the shadow of the moon
Take my hand, take my hand
When we were young
The summer would seem so long
And we’d sing our favourite song
We heard it on the radio
It was long ago
An endless light
And laughter until the dawn
A time when our dreams were born
Paved the way for all we have
And all we need
A summer sky
Its beauty was no surprise
Our love was in your eyes
I knew at once when you looked at me
You were all I could see
A slow dance
As you placed your hand in mine
There was never a better time
Moving to this ancient
Haunting melody

What a lovely performance to have of them

[@ransacked100]

It’s a shame DJ Rankin got me here 😂

[@triggered5451]

That’s my gran and grandad 🥰❤️

[@insomniacanon]

Im from India and I heard this song by complete chance as it was part of a recommended playlist on Spotify. Now it’s the most played song on my playlist and I can’t get over this band and this song (especially the instrumental part). I don’t get why they aren’t more famous and why this song isn’t more popular. It’s one of the best ones I’ve heard in the recent past.

[@megandonaldson1354]

If you can see them live... even more amazing

[@tracydaniels4999]

Can't agree with you more. I am very excited to see them live this summer!

[@rabmullin4922]

I’ve seen these guys perform quite a few times over the years. I chose this song for my new wife and I to walk back up the aisle after we committed ourselves to each other forever in July 2022. I love you Danielle ♥️♥️♥️

[@fraserhowland1692]

My mum works at a school for disabled kids with additional needs, she’s an absolute Saint, one day she came home with a CD as a band had came in and played for the kids and that’s when i fell in love with Skerryvore ❤ came in many times after that too! Beautiful souls with a heart gold and voices of angels.

[@ronaldjohnhayden946]

Was driving up with my wife from Ben Nevis to Loch Ness and this song came on the radio will never forget that day thank you Skerryvore X

[@darrenjones9446]

New to this band, introduced by a friend on Coll, absolutely love them. Followed Runrig for 30 years. These guys carry the Scottish music scene on into the future effortlessly. Brilliant.

[@mcloving6989]

You should also check "The Vatersay Boys" from the Isle of Barra .... KZbin them, you'll not be disappointed 👌

[@emilysmith4964]

This is going to be our first dance song!! Makes me cry happy tears every time we listen to it ❤

[@nectafarious8842]

Alec Dalgleish is one heck of a song writer. The whole band are consummate musicians and one of the very best live acts around today. They're also a great bunch to talk to at the bar over a dram or three!

[@SLaub-fi6cl]

Just saw them live in Maryland!! Loved them before and love them more now!!!!

[@TheDoddyf]

as an 80 year old expat from scotland and married for 58 years i love this song so many memories, just decovered Skerryvore i hope i can see them in scotland next visit april 2020 ,great gb

[@TheDoddyf]

@@SS-jt9ex as soon as this dam virus is over wel be there gb

[@JamesDUFC83]

I hope you seen them

[@Guy_6397]

This is our first dance song on December 04th 2023. We can't wait, we only wish we were wealthy enough to hire the band themselves! Love it, love Skerryvore and love telling our friends they'll be big time, every year... for years and years! 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@lovequeen7080]

Heard them live at the Irish Festival in Dallas and WOW! The bagpipes, flutes, violins....

[@davecastelanelli8003]

I was blessed with seeing then for the first time here in California. They were so awesome. I'm a big fan for life. When they come back to the USA I won't miss them for anything in the world.

[@sarahs.9678]

I discovered these guys yesterday at an online Celtic festival. So amazing. This song instantly captured the hearts of me and my husband. We’ve been playing their music while cooking today. 😁 This song/video gives me that feeling of being so happy I want to cry. Well done!! 🥰

[@morayskies]

So glad we took a 'punt' on watching this unknown (to us anyway) Scottish band when they appeared in Shrewsbury about 10 years ago. They played in the smaller Walker Theatre at the Theatre Severn. What a great evening we had - first time I've seen an entire theatre audience 'up and jigging'. Have followed Skerryvore ever since and watched them rise in popularity. Long may it continue.

[@welshspaceagency]

I was there too.

[@bothybill]

An absolutely beautiful song its possibly the best first dance at a wedding song ever recorded 👌👍

[@scottcumming8007]

Was my cousins first dance song a few months back, was perfect

[@KaPs1290]

Beautiful song. I sang this song on my wedding this November. Now we are two months married. Thank you very much for this beautiful song. 🙏❤️

[@craigramsay53]

Someone tell me how you could POSSIBLY give this a thumbs down (there are two at this writing.) Instrumentation, production, lyrics are just about perfect. I've been playing music for an awfu long time in bands both sides the water and this is as good a single as I've heard in years.

[@morayskies]

Totally agree. I've not heard a single Skerryvore 'track' that I haven't enjoyed.

[@tunesbyaidan]

Must've had their phone upside down

[@graemestevens5414]

Giving this a thumbs down and voting no independence are two things no decent human being would contemplate. The world is full of no righters.

[@maryemery130]

Do you think people’s mood at the time of listening affects their view point

[@stephenstubbs1955]

I'm surprised they've got thumbs to vote with, it's feckin awesome.

[@markpullinger7324]

Why is this not on the radio Come on chris Evans wake up !!!!!

[@EdFromOhio]

Had the privilege to see these guys at the Dublin, Ohio Irish Festival this past weekend. It was purely by coincidence that we sat down before they took the stage. I expected to hear the shrilly bagpipe sound, but they totally blew us away. All the instruments were complimentary of each other in perfect harmony. What a wonderful surprise. Thank you, Skerryvore !! Hope to see you in Scotland someday.

[@debbieclough4322]

Reminds me of my mum and Dad as they were rock and rollers they used to go Blackpool Tower dancing. The young lad is my grandsons uncle.

[@Concetta20]

Thank you “Grand Tour of the Scottish Isles” series for introducing me to Skerryvore! Such an amazing song, what a lovely video!

[@AUCHTERMUCHTYZZ]

Can’t stop listening to this song, lyrics are beautiful 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿❤️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@craigmathieson1499]

Just came across this in 2021 and I can’t stop listen to it ! Brilliant

[@danbytp]

Me being part Scottish I know what you mean!

[@pamelavaughn1761]

Modern day Runrig. That’s no bad thing.

[@markkohl4730]

Just saw them last week at the Thrasher Opera House, a 200 seat venue at Green Lake, Wi population 926. These lads poured their hearts in every note for every song.

[@andreagorin4045]

This is a beautiful song!! I’m so glad I just found this band❤️

[@grahamcunningham4924]

Beautiful

[@Dutchcyberscot]

Grand tune - makes the desire to hear the complete new upcoming album even bigger

[@jodiehoustonxo4905]

I love this song

[@jasondavidlouttit2407]

Few songs affect me like this one: My mum, who loved to dance, died earlier this year. She, along with my dad, would do a ceilidh, formal, swing, latin, etc. Thank for this.

[@deborahreynolds5613]

What a brilliant tune. Your music always makes me smile.

[@vernamccone9078]

First time I heard this tonight and can't stop listening to it x lovely words and music x

[@aileenstewart5889]

Snap 🥰 it’s so weird as I was just about to start looking for “first dance” songs and Spotify randomly started playing this after one of my own playlists that I had been listening to had finished! Think its a sign that this will be my “first dance” song 😍 We are having our reception at home and I’m hoping to get a small ceilidh band for the evening as a surprise, so this song before that is absolutely perfect! 🥂

[@karismcallister1471]

Awesome song wee ryan

[@karismcallister1471]

Cambeltown

[@HighlandLassie]

saw them last night in Vancouver and they sure put on a great show and this song makes you want to dance. Love all the songs and music play. They are my new favourite band

[@greenmeditations]

Just saw them live in Port Angeles, WA USA....spectacular...100s of new fans here!!! This was their best song, for sure, so uplifting. 🤗💙

[@bthulhu8578]

Seeing you guys perform this last Saturday in Zaisersweiher and me being able to dance with my girlfriend in the first row was just a dream come true for her. This song will now forever have a very deep meaning for her and me. The first time we could really dance after those 2 years of sadness, was very liberating. Thank you!

[@pamunderhill8247]

A fantastic song and a fantastic group , their music is a joy to behold,

[@richardprocter8012]

Could easily listen to this on repeat and never get bored 💚💚

[@inactive3651]

[@edwardconnolly9523]

Came across this song and band just recently through the linedance community with the wonderful Willie Brown (Scotland) & John Robinson (USA) choreographing a fabulous dance 'We'll go Dancing' to this beautiful track. Its been stuck in my head for weeks on end and doesn't seem to want to leave me any time soon! Great bit of music and fab video too. Good one Skerryvore

[@jonathanrigby5924]

Love Skerryvore! This video is fantastic, its perfect for the song. Well done x

[@martinhardy5462]

A late discoverer here. Wonderful song and a beautiful video. For a reason I can't define, it reminds me of Springsteen's "Born To Run", romantic, exciting and tinged with melancholy. Love it, thank you. Off to buy the album.

[@anneshirley1748]

I absolutely love this band! Have seen them a few times, more recently at Hebcelt!!

Beautiful song, and the video tells a great story!!
