Simple Minds - This Is Your Land lyrics

This is your land

It's the way it was planned

Sky to the sea, something to see

Old ancient town, to the old people ground

I wanna know, something to go

This is your land, laid out in your hand

This is your land

Wherever I go, way down here I know

This is your land

Oh churches and steeples, big city people

I wanna know something to hold

Walk down the track, to the old railroad track

I wanna leave something to see

This is your land, laid out in your hand

This is your land

Wherever I go, way down here I know

This is your land

Money can't buy me

Money can't buy me

I've got time

Time is on my side

You don't know what you've got till the whole thing's gone

The days are dark and the road is long

And when you walk away, the hope is gone

Tell me what is right, and what is wrong

Is this the way it was planned

This is your land, take it in your hand

This is your land

Wherever I go, way down here I know

This is your land, take it in your hand

This is your land

Wherever I go, way down here I know
