Blackmore's Night - Highland Lyrics






Looking out and I'm wondering where I am
While I'm stuck in the daily traffic jam
I decide to get out and leave the world behind me
Everywhere there are people passing by
Empty faces and not a friendly smile
Under stress, loneliness, a part of our city

Now I finally have decided
I will leave it all behind
And discover something better
And l know where I will find
Find a place of harmony, of laughter and of dreams
It you want me, that is where I'll be

I'll be waiting on the Highland
With its wonderful serenity
Where the stars glow and the brooks flow
That's my way of life
When the mountains on the Highland
And the nature is surrounding me
When the wind blows
That's all I need, all I need

On the highland when I was a child
l would play with my friends and we were wild
And we all loved the moors, the nature and it's freedom
And we went for ghost hunt in the mist
l remember the first time I got kissed
By the shy neighbour guy, who whispered "be my girlfriend"
But I longed for some excitement
So l travelled 'round the world
After that I settled down and
l became a city girl
Want to parties every night and lived intensively
Now l know it's not a life for me

I'll be waiting on the Highland
With it's wonderful serenity
Where the stars glow and the brooks flow
That's my way of life
When the mountains on the Highland
And the nature is surrounding me
When the wind blows
that's all I need
On the Highland, on the Highland, you will see

Oh my darling, I would hate to leave it whitout you
I'm sure you love the highland too

If you join me I can promise
You'll stay until eternity

I'll be waiting on the Highland
With it's wonderful serenity
Where the stars glow and the brooks flow
That's my way of life
When the mountains on the Highland
And the nature is surrounding me
When the wind blows
that's all I need
On the Highland

On the highland

All the mountains on the highland are embracing
and surrounding me

  1. P.... G....

  2. M.... R....

    We need music like this to go mainstream

  3. S.... T....

    hey : ) ❤ LISTEN TO MY BLACKMORE'S NIGHT COVERS ❤ : )

  4. J.... L....

    Wow, mrjohn1964...haters gotta hate, right?! Ritchie's earned the right to play and do whatever he wants...what have YOU done? I noticed you didn't complain about the electric guitar in the mix. It sounds great, as does this act. Wonderful stuff by this group.

  5. C.... d....

    love you Ritchie.

  6. J.... R....

    Con el perdón de Richie Blackmor, que hermosura de mujer ,divina, el regalo que le dio la vida a Richie.

  7. z.... ....

    Sounds more like pop than folk rock but it reminds me more of older 90s pop like ABBA which isn't that bad. And as opposed to todays pop singers this one relies fully on her own voice and the bands performance, not dancing like a stripper or dressing like one.
    This is the way music is suppose to be.

    z.... ....

    zwippie92 The original group, One More Time, wrote the song in the early 90s, music by Peter Grönvall (son of Benny Andersson from abba), and lyrics by his wife Nanne Grönvall. So you’re not too far off

    z.... ....

    @SiriSelinda Huh, the more you know.

  8. �.... �....

    You're awesome! You're not going to Moscow? I really want to see you live!

  9. J.... ....

    Perfect body, perfect teeth, perfect hair...Ritchie must be happy.

  10. R.... ....

    isn't it time to reupload HD version

  11. J.... M....

    as usual, an amazing song by The legend of guitar and the queen of vocals

  12. Z.... �....

    DOBRÉ RÁNO.................................................

  13. V.... G....

    stupenda canzone, allegra e coinvolgente. Come sempre la voce di Candice è sensuale e piena di espressività: semplicemente fantastica. Great Candice !!!!

  14. j.... f....

    I don't care if it's written by a different band, they do this wonderfully and chose it. And it's always a song that they free me with.love the good in life.

  15. m.... ....

    Did I ask you something?

  16. G.... J....

    What an amazing choice of song to cover. Almost as good as the original. Written by Benny Andersson's son Peter Gronvall and his wife Nanne, you can really hear the ABBA DNA in this song especially in the guitar solo.

    G.... J....

    No secret that Ritchie is an ABBA fan, he told a hilarious story how his whole band revealed to be ABBA-fans, in early Rainbow years. It is in that documentary.

  17. m.... ....

    Is the the medieval sound searched by the genius Ritchie Blackmore?

    In Brasil we have an word to this: brega (kitsch).

    It seems to me The Corrs, without the female beuaty. A sad final paying the obey and beeing shamed with this songs to put elves to sleep.

    Come back to Rock & Roll, Ritchie. She is a cursed witch with blond hair and brown eyebrows.

  18. n.... ....

    @dreamawaythemiles I spend a couple hours a week going through videos here and it almost hurts at the number of people that sit and moan and groan about "how I was left out" yet so very few people will go out of their way to look for exactly what they are asking for. if you really wish to see someone in person, you will find a way. and if it turns out that you actually are unable to reach that goal. you can find a way to reach the person or group that you wish to see (at least in this case)

  19. B.... N....

    @dreamawaythemiles
    Thay actually played edinburgh not too long ago. guess you werent there.

  20. K.... R....

    VERY GOOD. KAMI ROSHANDEL

  21. C.... ....

    More Earl Gray dammit !!

    C.... ....

    The Earl rules!

  22. S.... ....

    @dreamawaythemiles It's not their song, it's a cover, so you can't blame Candice for the lyrics!

  23. b.... ....

    Beautiful! Love BN ! Ritchie & Candice mesh perfectly!
