about

The first single from our forthcoming album, ‘Learning to Be’. Lyrics based on the poem ‘In a Museum’ by Thomas Hardy.

lyrics

Here is a bird, striving to to be free
Long passed from light
Over the Earth, long before we
Curving now in flight

Here’s the song I heard last night
That served to guide me home
Echoes of that sweet refrain
Formed within my bones

Wild is the space, separating me
From that ancient voice
Yet perished not through visions unknown
Endlessness of choice

Such a dream of time is this
That though the odds are long
If I listen I may hear
The universes song
