THE RIGHT ROAD

JAMIE 
You must accept, there’s a price now on my head,
But scarce a coin in my purse,
I never thought for one moment, on the day we wed
You’d be my saviour and my nurse

As a wanted man, it’s all too clear,
I cannot return to my own land,
So if you need to find your freedom and leave me here,
I will understand

CLAIRE 
I’ve no fear of what lies ahead,
Not in any time or place
We’ll live as one, the two of us,
And find the right road through all we face 

I thought Black Jack might have knocked some sense,
Into that thick Highland skull,
My life with you, has been harsh and intense,
But surely never dull. 

Cast back your mind to that Highland glen
When you tried to say farewell to me,
In my heart of hearts, I knew there and then,
What would be my destiny.

But I’ve no fear of what lies ahead,
Not in any time or place
We’ll live as one, the two of us,
And find the right road through all we face 

JAMIE 
Claire think about the kind of life we’ll have to lead
We’ll be hiding in the shadows,

CLAIRE 
Yes, Jamie, I know

JAMIE 
Unsure of everyone we meet,
Are they friend or foe?

CLAIRE 
Jamie, I don’t care
I’ll follow where ever you go

CLAIRE/JAMIE
I’ve no fear of what lies ahead,
Not in any time or place
We’ll live as one, the two of us,
And find the right road through all we face, 

CLAIRE
We’ll find the right road through all we face.

But Jamie, there will in fact be the three of us……
