about

A song that celebrates my St Helenian heritage.

lyrics

Out of the Earth come light
Illuminates the empty night
Sends its rays into the cosmic dawn
Red shift blue shift no decay
Fragments of a summer's day
Growing up in the house where I was born
Where I belonged
In my private universe
Time is flowing in reverse
I lose myself in days of future past
Traffic flows I count them all
Watch those cooling towers fall
Remember when those things were built to last
Well now those days are gone
We learn to love and we try to trust
Strange fasciations may turn to dust
Still we dare to dream
We dare to dream
Out of the Earth comes light
Get down to the parade tonight
To see the best of all that we've become
Here in this northern town
The sun comes up and then goes down
We don't give up until the race is run
Where I come from
