Lyrics:
An island in the sunlight
Laughter in the rain
A whisky in the darkness
It all feels just the same.
Watch the sunset over Hynish
See the twilight merge to dawn
Hear the waves caress the shoreline
As the island carries on.
I've been walking, walking these shores all my days
But with you by my side I am walking on the waves.
There's two lovers on the machair
And they walk down to the sand
Their silhouettes are on the water
As they paddle hand in hand.
And it's a game of sweet surrender
When there's nothing left to say
And there are moments to remember
Once these days are long away.
I've been walking, walking these shores all my days
But with you by my side I am walking on the waves.
So you look out on the ocean
See the headlands and the strands
And you wonder what horizons
Will shape tomorrow's plans
And through the turning of the seasons
And the cycle of the days
Every drink's another reason
To let tomorrow sail away.
I've been walking, walking these shores all my days
But with you by my side I am walking on the waves.
The surging of the ocean,
The breakers on the shore,
The echoes of our bodies,
To the lovers' dream we soar.
I've been walking, walking these shores all my days
But with you by my side I am walking on the waves.
Written by A. Macphail and R. Robertson

I'm a MacDonald here on the shores of the Outer banks in the USA singing this exact song!
Just back from a holiday in Malta, March 2024 and heard this playing in a bar. Hadn’t heard it before but my friend and I thought it was fantastic. Quick
“Shazam” identified it and here I am putting it into my RUclips favourites.
Life is good.
My wife and I attended the Edinburgh Royal Military Tattoo in August and heard this song performed by the entire cast of performers. As Americans we weren't familiar with it but everyone around us knew the words. After a bit of Googling, we found that you are the source of this incredible song. We've shared it many times. What an uplifting piece!
I was there and it was a fantastic night glad you enjoyed it
I found this song from the Tattoo as well!
Same here, saw it performed at the Edinburgh Tattoo and fell in love with it, even better sung by one band in its native style, beautiful
I found this from the Tattoo too, what an amazing song it is 🏴🏴
Me too!
Love this. Scotland is a wild, cold and wet place on the periphery of Europe yet it is full with the most warm, romantic and authentic people and cultures.
:'-)
hi hi hi hi hi hi hi hi hey
Jhinox heyyy
Jhinox this is my other account lol
Luath. So true!!!.
This song has more heart and soul in it than 90% of music coming out today
Someone always has to say this.
Great song
This music has the soul of Scotland in it. It flows out of it 😁😁😁😁😁😁😁
@@orphanoforbit7588 because it does
All of their song's do lol. Love this band.
Fucking epic !!!! Have a new favourite band , this is Scotland , Scotland Forever!!!!!
The Edinburgh Royal Military Tatoo led me to find this song.
It is like a hymn that evokes melancholy and joy, remembrance and expectation, at the same time.
It is a wonderful song....I will learn it and sing it!
Respect and admiration from Mexico 🇲🇽
Me too! Love it!
Same here!
Same.
Amazingly put. Hope you come and visit!
Well well - more recognition..... even if Robert has "skipped the ship" at the Tide Line. Were my ears deceiving me? No! "Walking on the Waves" as the closing song of the 2022 Edinburgh Military Tattoo!!! Well done. i hope the royalties are rolling in. Still one of my favourites. Slàinte!
Great song, and I saw the cast of many version at Edinburgh Tattoo, lent its simplicity of a song to the mass voice treatment of the shows cast. Really good
Logging on from California here (where we have some lovely shores of our own). Wifey and I took about 3 weeks motoring about Scotland last year, and we're both in love. With the land. With the countryside. With the people.
I don't know what to make of it all. Only know I wish I had not left it so late in my life.
So, all best from our coastline to yours!
I feel so lucky to have been brought up in the west of Scotland and greater still to have a connection to Tobermory. Skipenish are great and their songs make me very happy.
went out with a bunch of pals last night n got absolutely hammered ended up standing on a bench singing loads of scottish songs like this, loch lomond and flower of scotland. best feeling ever just singing as loud as you can n bouncing around with your closest friends
Brilliant! This song is a perfect example of where America's country music got it's roots! Can't wait to hear more of Skippinish!
Try Skerryvore
Miss my time in scotland. The most lovely people I have ever met.
Gra mor o mhuintir na hEireann. ❤️❤️❤️
I spent every summer as a kid in Tiree, love the place like nowhere else on earth. This band brings it all back. Lead singer sounds like a young Ronnie Brown of the Corries. Fantastic band.
Going in 3 weeks 🌅 my mum went every summer when she was young, this will be my first visit without her by my side, but her favourite place, so the best place to remember her ♥️
One fan in China. Would buy the album next time when I visit Scotland!
I'm from ireland and spent a few months in Scotland. I'll definitely be back and hoping to settle there it's an absolutely beautiful part of the world.❤❤
Im from ireland scotland is so beatiful
true dat
swap you big man
Your are our brothers( just dont bring any arabs or other aliens with you, only Irish) SAOR ALBA GU BRATH
I now have an obsessed 6 year old! Robert was recently at Sgoil Gaidhlig Ghlaschu helping them with their translation of this song into Gaidhlig and has become my son Seamus's idol. He's not put his guitar down for weeks and it's great to see. Moran taing!
Chuinnic Mise Robert aig Albert hall Ann's sruighlea Agus tha e Cho mar,sios gun talamh ,ma bheil fhios agad de tha mi heath.ach tha Thu Cho lucky airson a bhi cuideachadh rabhairt leis rudan mar siud😀
Outstanding
American here in 2024! 🙋🏼♀️ just got back from an incredible trip to Scotland and our tour guide played this song on the bus. Now I’m going through a deep dive and downloading Scottish music left and right. This song is amazing!

Get yourself into Runrig, Skerryvore and Skippnish. I left Scotland 16 years ago, They are so dear to my heart!!!!
Welcome back anytime you want my friend !
Take my hand ,,skeryvore........run right....only the brave.....not the live version
It's been almost 2 months since I returned from my Scotland trip and I m still listening to these masterpieces introduced to me by Scottish tour guide. I feel so grateful that I visited this heaven on earth with beautiful landscape and wonderful people. ❤
This is a very good song! I'm Catalan and this August I did a journey through Scotland with our guide Katie from Haggis Adventures. We came in Oban at the Ceilidh House. This was how I discovered your music band. I like very much this song!
I lost count of how many times we played this on our 3-day adventure around Scotland. It does make for a very great sing-a-long song on the bus.
Omg, livin in Scotland is a dream!!!
Love from Indonesia!!
I live in Scotland it is the best country in the world ❤
Absolutely beautiful music Scottish & proud! Go ursel skipinnish ur magic ❤️
I had to look this up after reliving the Royal Military Tattoo. We went all over Scotland this summer and loved Shetland! This song talks about the love of the ocean and we love it!
While on vacation last month, I heard this song during the Scottish Military Tattoo show. Beautiful song. I'm so glad I found the full version.
Magic and lovely views of Eigg,Rhum & Skye!

This song makes me homesick for Scotland, and I was born and raised here
Heard it for the first time at the Tattoo Finale, loved it.
That’s exactly where I first heard this song at the tattoo what a great night we had my daughters American friend with us she was flabbergasted by the whole experience memories that will last a lifetime glad yous enjoyed a great night
I've been waiting for a song like this most of my life
John Macleod bloody hell you e kept your ears closed most of your life then!
There is so much Highland music like this it’s incredible!
Had to look it up after hearing it at the military tattoo and my god what a great song.
Great song, great performance.
Great Song ! Love it ! It is very nicely written, with excellent lyrics, and is beautifully sung and played ! Love the accordion and fiddle ! Magnificent Video ! It's an excellent production, and really suits the music ! Thank you so much for sharing this superb upload ! 5*+

Thx for the lyrics
Love this track, really do! As good as folk music gets from our bonnie land.
This song just makes me so happy
Well, Skipinnish is definitely my go to band. No one comes close!!!!🇦🇺❤️
Our guide with Haggis Adventures played this song during our tour of Higlands and it hooked me instantly
Omg I just got back from a Haggis Adventures tour and that’s how I discovered this song! July 2024 🙋🏼♀️
RUclips - using my tablet - kept hustling me to install it's music app. I gave in eventually and the first recommendation was this, never heard of them, glad I have now.
I totally love this song guys! I've been in your lands many times and this song reminds to me all good feelings I felt. A hug from Italy!
Love the song,love the singer`s voice, love his wonderful Scottish accent, love Scotland the Scottish people and loved my holiday in Oban in 1992 when the late Billy Ford let me get up and sing a couple of songs in the Step Inn. I`m from Manchester but live in Ireland. God bless all Celts and Celtic music. It`s the best.
I am new to this group I like them very much love Scottish and Irish music love Diane xxxx ☺️😁💝😋🌹

Greetings from Germany, i love this Song very much.thanks!
I've got this stuck in my head now...
Our camp teacher kept putring on this song at every lesson. Kinda fell in love with these songs.
You canna best scotland the views the places and the great Scottish music.
The first song I heard not long after my second son was born, couldn't think of many better songs to hear
Just found this over the weekend and I’m in love. The song, especially the chorus, is so cheerful and bouncy and just makes me want to dance and sing along :)
How brilliant is this.. great vibe.. love from Ireland
Love from Romania❤️
British camp?
Yeeeah
This was our wedding song. Got married 2 days before first ever lock down on the West Coast of Scotland.
and that is how "Spotify " brought this good song to my ears far away to Peru (just in case, in South America), regards.
Watching the 2022 Edinburgh Tattoo, they sang this song. Which in turn made search RUclips. Which in turn lead me here. What a fantastic song and a new found band. That you.
I keep telling myself that I only listen to Skipinnish because I love their music, but I'm gonna be honest: I'd listen to and watch Robert Robertson sing terms and conditions and still be just as obsessed :D
Same! 🙈😂
Saw you at Hogmanay in Aberdeen this year... There's nothing like Scottish people bouncing on good Scottish music in the night!
I love your song! ;) A scottish exchange teacher played the song in our english lesson! keep on going guys ;)
greeze and peace from AUSTRIA
I think I have Scots blood in me already somewhere. Irish and English and German too. I happened to rest on this page for a moment and checked it out and fell in love with it instantly. Must've been my Celtic heritage.
after watching the Edinburgh Military Tattoo, fell in love with this song, a bit of searching led me to my new favourite band.
So BEAUTIFUL....WOW! Love this song so much
Saw you on BBC Alba Hogmanay Show. Now I am hooked. Great sound guys.
+Shelagh McGhie same here!!!!
+Shelagh McGhie me too!
