Elinoire: Now I’m here, surprised at all
These humans are tall, I’m afraid No familiar place, I’m scared to move This new surrounding contests my shelter from the rain
Love: Now you are born my dear I will lay my love on you I’ll keep the promise, I’ll do
Lea: Don’ be afraid my child I’m always with you, Elinoire Even if I have to go Please be well-behaved And walk the path of life I’ll pull you through from on high
Death: It’s time to come along The boat doesn’t wait It longs for you, your name is carved in stone Follow me into the light Closer to the dawn, now Faithfully
Lea: Now you are born I will lay my love on you
Love: Listen to your sanity
And bid farewell to Elinoire Look what you’ve left behind Even if it’s hard for you That she’ll be out of reach This one memory, this one memory remains
Father: She died for you, Elinoire
Destiny: No need to cry anymore
Season: Here in heaven she cares for you
Spirit: Aim for the stars, don’t you cry
Guitar Solo: Gary Wehrkamp
Lea: Don’t mourn about me
Elinoire: I’m afraid to fail
Lea: Your tears run dry, whether you don’t remain
Elinoire: I can feel your warmth above my skin I won’t pretend I will endure
Season: Forget about the pain my dear, you’re sheltered by your fathers hand Even if he would not show Please be well-behaved And walk the path of life
Concience: Just follow your heart You’ll find your way Follow your heart
You’ll find all my light in the stars
Spirit: In the stars my Elinoire

What can I say about Big Big Train that I haven’t said before?
This album took a little while to grow on me but by the time I saw it live I was in love with its humongous, over-egged pomposity! They do it all with such passion, excitement and amazing musicianship.
Essential. Crinklechips
Streamlining their post-metal sprawl through a sharper melodic focus, the Scottish juggernauts' third LP is labyrinthine yet approachable. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 25, 2024
Always excited to learn and hear what Alex Lifeson does next and this is a fabulous pivot. And Maiah Wynne is a poetic vocal talent, infusing her performance with complex emotion. More please! Perchance Music & Digital Media (SM)
