Another version of Crumble, disguised of course and with several chords inverted.
lyrics
tumbleweed
who will speak when all is done
a world asleep, a waiting son
the winds that sweep across the land
as molecules make plans
who will cry for all that’s gone
childhood stories old men’s songs
in the empty village square
the tumbleweed spores prepare
isaac watches through his tears
as abraham draws voices near
i would give my life for you
i wish to god you knew
when the world began to stray
i’m not so sure that i can say
who will come to fight for you
when they train their lights on you
in the empty village square
most people wouldn’t dare to care
eyes are searching from afar
to steal tomorrow, maybe more
and if this rage upon us stings
it’s just the end of everything
the end we saw begin
who will speak for all of this
who will stop the ventriloquist
hurry now ‘cos if we fail
the tumbleweed will prevail

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
In the wake of buying the Welcome To The Planet I also went for this older "EP" (clocking in on 70 minutes a rather big big EP...) as a final farewell to a very bright bright star that sadly doesn't shine anymore. Carsten Pieper
