Ears Of Tin (2006 Digital Remaster) - Jethro Tull[00:00:00]
Written by:Ian Anderson[00:00:02]
In the last hours of a sunset rendezvous[00:00:18]
Chill breeze against tide[00:00:26]
That carries me from you[00:00:30]
Got a job in a southern city[00:00:33]
Got some lead-free in my tank[00:00:38]
Now I must whisper goodbye[00:00:40]
I'm bound for the mainland[00:00:44]
Island in the city cut by a cold sea[00:00:50]
People moving on an ocean[00:00:58]
Groundswell of humanity[00:01:01]
Now the sum breaks through rain[00:01:07]
As I climb Glen Shiel[00:01:12]
On the trail of those old cattlemen[00:01:14]
Who drove their bargain south again[00:01:18]
And in the eyes of those five[00:01:22]
Five sisters of Kintail[00:01:26]
There's a wink of seduction from the mainland[00:01:29]
Island in the city cut by a cold sea[00:01:39]
People moving on an ocean[00:01:46]
Groundswell of humanity[00:01:49]
Storm-lashed on the high-rise[00:01:54]
Their words are spray to the wind[00:01:57]
Blown like silent laughter[00:02:02]
Falling on ears of tin[00:02:05]
Take my heart and take my brawn[00:02:19]
Take by stealth or take by storm[00:02:22]
Set my brain to cruise[00:02:25]
I can see the glow of the suburb lights[00:02:29]
I'm fresh from the out-world[00:02:33]
Singing the mainland blues[00:02:35]
The mainland blues[00:02:39]
There was a girl where I came from[00:02:45]
Seems a long time long time gone by[00:02:48]
Wears the west wind in her hair[00:02:56]
She calls from the hill yeah[00:02:59]
She calls in my mainland blues[00:03:01]
The mainland blues[00:03:05]
The mainland blues[00:03:27]
There's a coast road that winds[00:03:39]
To heaven's door[00:03:45]
Where a fat ferry floats[00:03:47]
On muted diesel roar[00:03:51]
And there's a light on the hillside[00:03:54]
And there's a flame in her eyes[00:03:59]
But how cold the lights burn on the mainland[00:04:02]
Island in the city cut by a cold sea[00:04:14]
People moving on an ocean[00:04:21]
Groundswell of humanity[00:04:24]
Storm-lashed on the high-rise[00:04:28]
Their words are spray to the wind[00:04:32]
Blown like silent laughter[00:04:36]
Falling on ears of tin[00:04:40]
In my mainland blues[00:04:45]
