This is a fiddler's fantasy romance, in the style of a brisk Scottish pipe march, with a strong Cajun vibe.

Wishful Thinking Anna Durkacz 26/9/16
There was this guy, he caught my eye D
He was quite nice, but I was shy. G D
I kept my distance, I watched and listened D
Until I knew that it was time to try. D A D
Life in the city, full of surprises
Who would believe that this could be?
We went to ceilidhs, laughing and dancing
At last I knew he was the one for me.
So we went busking and we made a fortune
We spent it wisely as I knew we would.
A herd of reindeer and a pair of sled dogs
Took to the hills as I knew we should.
From spring to summer we travelled northwards
Along the great West Highland way.
We built a yurt from hides of reindeer
And every night we’d sing and play.
Beneath the stars we made sweet music.
It floated out to the Western Sea
Then we lay down on a bed of heather
And the rest is history.
The lonely mountains gathered round us
And soon the snow began to lie.
And so we turned our weary footsteps
Towards the south and humankind.
The city beckons, old lifestyles call
The Christmas ceilidh is drawing near.
I am allowed some wishful thinking
At least one time in every year.
