This Momentous Day - Anja Garbarek

On this momentous day

Curious seduction

The most striking thing

Changes colour and its shape

Hissing words of no safety any more

On this momentous day

Already in position

So delicate so clean

I forget to leave

And my name has long, long gone

Hey James, if you wish the race is on Hey James, if you please the chase is on

I’m ready, ready, ready to recall

I’m ready, ready, ready to recall the visual

On this momentous day

The story’s in the background

No need to tell

I’ve got shadows crossing my face

As I run my hands along

On this momentous day

Seems to’ve cracked wide open

Leaving nothing left to dream

I hear myself scream

Is this land or more sky

Did you notice that we moved

Moved fast

Along this thin strip

Flashing

Do you think we were followed here

Follow me

'Cause there’ll be no flight there’ll be a killing

Hey James, if you wish the race is on Hey James, if you please the chase is on

I’m ready, ready, ready to recall

I’m ready, ready, ready to recall the visual

I’m ready, ready, ready to recall

I’m ready, ready, ready to recall the visual

On this momentous day

No effort is made

No visible sign

Of any kind

That this will ever end
