Bring the wind to carry me over
Lead me home to my town
Tell me when that breeze is blowing
Taking me home to my town
When I think of you, Scotia
There's a love that just bleeds in my heart
In my childhood days we went our different ways
But you knew that we'd never part
Now I'm all alone and you're calling me home
You knew our love could never die
And though my roving eyes always led me astray
When I'm coming back home, Scotia, don't walk away
Bring the wind to carry me over
Lead me home to my town
Tell me when that breeze is blowing
Taking me home to my town
Oh! So, when I think of you, Scotia
There's a magic that fills the air
We're the "Downtown boys" making all that noise, oh!
We lived like we just don't care
So, we drank our fill for king and country
Yeah, 'till the last soldier fell
Burlington Bertie, you're in my heart forever
I want to drown in the stories you tell
Bring the wind to carry me over
Lead me home to my town
Tell me when that breeze is blowing
Taking me home to my town
Oh, to my town
You made me all I can ever be
If I should fall, your love will rescue me
Bring the wind to carry me over
Lead me home to my town
Tell me when that breeze is blowing
Taking me home to my town
Bring the wind to carry me over (carry me over)
Lead me home to my town (to my town)
Tell me when that breeze is blowing
Taking me home to my town
Oh, carry me over
Lead me home to my town (to my town)
Tell me when that breeze is blowing
Taking me home to my town
Bring the wind to carry me over
Lead me home to my town (to my town)
Tell me when that breeze is blowing
Taking me home to my town
