    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

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

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

      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! 🥂

    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.
