Big Big Train - Beneath The Masts Lyrics

Beneath The Masts Song Lyrics Beneath The Masts by Big Big Train [Part One - On The Bank]
We stepped into the darkness
Headed for the heights
Leaving behind a pool of friendly light
Far off in the distance
Crowned with glowing red
On and off and on again
A beacon fire
A warning glow
We climb the bank
And see the future
Under star and moonlight
We must let this go
The two of us
It's past now
Gone now

[Part Two - Homeground]
On the streets far below
Car lights dance as workers journey home
One last time we sat alone
Words unsaid remain unspoken

That's how things are
That's how it goes
I stand my own ground
But the Earth spins fast

Furthеr on
Further out
The name I carry
Turnеd to smoke and mirrors

That's how things are
That's how it goes
I stand my own ground
But the Earth spins fast
Here come the years
Of loss and of tears
England is a sea
Of clouds these days

It's been a long journey home
If I don't go back again
A piece of my heart
Will stay there forever
Here in the fading light
I walk beneath the mast
I climb up high to see the past

[Part Three - On The Mast]
A sunburst breaks through the clouds
For a moment
The air is still
And I take in the view
I am lost up here
I am bruised and broken
Hold my hand, dear
Don't let go
You were there as if I were your own
It was more than enough
It was more than I could hope for
A constellation of stars
Takes form
We look for shapes
We draw in straight lines
And make things joined
So far apart
Yet held ever closer
With too much to bear
We take some time out
And come up for air

[Part Four - The Devil's Dressing Room]
[instrumental]

[Part Five - On The Hillside]
In the end we are alone
One last day then all is gone
One long summer love burned bright
But time waits in the wings

Head out at sunset
Stars are coming out
The night filled with wonder
Beauty and magic
Here on the hillside
The moon is rising
Stars are shining
Out there is everything that's ever been In a cloud of blossom
A mist of snowdrops
Winter fades to a memory
And the birds on the wire
Take flight to the distance
Find a way that leads back home again
