Reay (Scottish Gaelic: Ràth) is a village which has grown around Sandside Bay on the north coast of the Highland council area of Scotland. It is within the historic Parish of Reay and the historic county of Caithness.
The village is on the A836 road some 12 miles (19 km) west of the town of Thurso and 3 miles (4.8 km) west of Dounreay.
Along with Thurso the village grew dramatically in the mid-20th century with the development of the experimental nuclear power facility at Dounreay, where technologies such as fast breeder reactors were developed.
The last force-fire in Reay occurred about 1830.
The origin of the name is uncertain, but possibilities include the Gaelic Reidh (a flat place) or Ratha (a fort or enclosure). Possibilities from Norse include Ra (a boundary marker) or Vra (a nook or corner). Another possibility is the word Ra, a now obsolete word for the yardarm of a boat. A prehistoric mound at the west end of the beach is called Cnocstanger, which means pole hill.
Go go go away with me mhm
Far from his heart and eyes I can love you and you'll realize
That your life holds so much in store
When you wanted and loved and adored
Go go go away with me and I know you soon will forget
His false love that's haunting your memories
Go and you'll never regret
You're his plaything and nothing more
He will hurt you he's done it before
Then you'll cry out cry out in vain
For his heart to go wondering again
Go go go away with me...
