Dougie Mclean - Garden Valley

This is really not my home,
Where are you, my lovely Jenny?
I'm afraid and all alone,
There's no peace for me.
I'm sitting in the stranger's room,
Playing at the stranger's table;
Shining empty like the moon,
There's no peace for me.

Chorus (after each verse):
But in the darkness struggle cold,
I think about a garden valley;
Gentle as the leaves unfold,
Singing out along the Tay,
Distant and so far away,
There's no peace for me.

I'm blinded by your city lights,
I wander through these fearful places,
The colors fade to black and white,
There's no peace for me.
These are not the friends I know,
These are not their smiling faces,
A desert that no one should know,
There's no peace for me.

Now I know and feel it well,
The immigrant's deep sunken feeling,
Standing at the gates of hell,
There's no peace for me.
Burned out by their master's greed,
Cruel exile, transportation,
Robbed of every love and need,
There's no peace for me.
