Lyrics Maggie Reilly

Maggie Reilly

Canada

If I could have a day or two

Just to spend some time with you

I think I would

And if I could have a month or two

Just to spend my time with you

I think I would

But the light's fading in the distance

I drive my weary way home

Skylight is red with all the citylights

And driving's such a long way home

I've been saving half the year

To make this trip and come back here

But now it's done

You tell me that my accent's changed

apart from that I'm still the same

But now it's done

The light's fading in the distance

I drive my weary way home

Skylight is red with all the citylights

Glasgow's such a long way home

See the light fading in the distance

I drive my weary way home

Skylight is red with all the citylights

I'm driving such a long way home

I'm flying back to Canada

Looking up at all the stars as we take off

These three weeks seem so short somehow

I wish they were starting now

As we take off

But the light's fading in the distance

I drive my weary way home

Skylight is bright with all the citylights

And Glasgow's such a long way home
