We wanted a song both Michelle and I could sing, and I love the harmonies at the beginning.
lyrics
If we cling too tight and the air is drawn away
Could we survive in this world that we create
Are words that bind, our hearts entwined
If I cling to tight and your air is drawn away
Could you survive in this world that I create
If I take your wings,never to fly again
And lock them safe away
Would the sky beacon you to fly another day
What would you do, if I let you fly away
Would you remember me and come back another day
Or would the sky trouble me as if to say
Now you're on your own and found yourself again
You have to learn to let me fall
And if I fly too high,I will come crashing down
The choice is mine to make, so give me back my wings
They were never yours to take
But if I go then you will see, I will come back to you
Although you set me free ...
The debut album of this great Polish prog band. It may not be quite as polished or mature as the latest couple of albums, but yet it features a different, less catchy - perhaps more proggy - and definitely a more somber version of the band. Retrospective have changed their sound, surely. You may prefer their latter music, or their former - but one thing is certain: this is a great album you should not miss! V_Shaft
