More space now, with a song about change from microcosm to the macrocosm, this new single by the composer, singer and musician from Glasgow comes with a sublime melody and a dream-like, cinematic quality. Chris Duncan is signed to Bella Union. To explore and enjoy of his work, including three previous albums, and another recent single, The Wedding Song, see the Spotify embedded link below.
We came to see the sun rise up
We came to see the fire go out
Awake, wake
How could you do everything the world is
Asking you to do?
We came to see the mountain range, oh
To see the seasons starting to change
Arise, rise
How could I be everything the world is
Asking me to be?
A wave of ecstasy
It's all around you
A weight I cannot feel, I cannot move
And it slows under the floor like alluvium
That's out for someone, something new
You ought to push the wolves aside
The servant with the wandering eye
Away, way
Out of the scene everything has been
Is asking you to see
The rolling leaves unfold
The forest turns to gold
With flowing arms stretched out to hold
With all the wanderers and worriers before us
It's all around you
A weight I cannot feel, I cannot move
And it slows under the floor like alluvium
That's out for someone, something new
