Tour Scotland Video Talking With My Father Dougie MacLean Perthshire Amber Festival Dunkeld Highland Perthshire

Tour Scotland video of the brilliant Dougie MacLean singing Talking With My Father at the Sunday afternoon picnic at the Perthshire Amber Festival on visit to Dunkeld, Perthshire, Scotland.

I'm talking with my father, he's talking with his son
And I don't need to look any further for the one I have become
He says listen to that curlew that's a sound I love to hear
It's a strange reflection that we look through oh that finally finds us here

CHORUS
In this place where life's heart thunders
In this place where time holds still
In this place of harmony and wonder
And values not of gold fulfil

I'm walking with my father across these gentle Perthshire hills
It's timeless mysteries that we gather that make the memories that we fill
He says don't fix what is not broken no need to find what's not been lost
It's a heavy gate we have to open an endless field we have to cross

CHORUS

There will always be the brave one there'll be the one who turns away
With all too many things left undone oh and so much left to say
I'm talking with my father, he's talking with his son
I don't need to look any further for the one I have become

CHORUS
