Ten miles I've walked today
Along the shore
I saw your ghost again
The seasoning and the birds gather to go
And I laid down on the top of a cliff
Confessed my sins into the wind
And the sky lay a feather in my mouth

Good Lord what a beautiful day
For untraveling, unraveling this heavy heart away
To forgive and forget myself
And my enemies
My bruises washed away

Today
Was the day
I first said
"I belong"

Here in the ghost region
All alone upon the shore
On this changing line between land and sea
Between a cease-fire and a war

And down by the foot of the cliff
Where I gathered shells and watched the swell
Blossom up around my feet
I saw the ribcage of some wreck on the rocks
What a tragic cost
For getting lost
When you just can't find a light
Through this fog

But today
Was the day
I first said
"I belong
"I belong"

Here in the ghost region
All alone upon the shore
On this changing line between land sea
Between a cease-fire and a war
It's a war

It's some beautiful war

It's a wild stretch of land
Such a sad place to be
When the night comes heavy down
And the sand turn to sea

Many saints have lost their love
Many a-pilgrim died unseen
In that wild stretch of land
In that fire to be free

  • Why did you put '/The towans(Medley)' ?

    Is the towans in this the It's a wild stretch of land on down?

  • Yes, it also features on 'Lands End', the last track from 'Wind In The Wires'. And it's called 'The Towans'.

  • I want to marry his music.

  • After hearing this beautiful song in the b side versions I didn't think I could hear anything much more beautiful but this version is something else truly. His voice is stunning.

    I've never been so happy to finally get broadband so I can listen and watch youtube videos without the teeth wrenching pain of dialup.

see all

  • Towans seems to fit with this song more than it does 'lands end.' Very good.

  • Can you send me an MP3 of this please? :) It's beautiful.
