Big Big Train - Skylon lyrics

Artist: Big Big Train

album: The Second Brightest Star


After the re after the storm post-war London six years on
At the side of the Thames: Skylon
Broken walls
An end to all good things open skies
Seen through roo ess houses. But down by the Thames 300 feet above the river soaring higher than
The church spires
Skylon
Rising up before me
Oating in mid air
I lost myself in wonder
It was something from Dan Dare. A vision of the future
A beacon in the night sky
A promise of much better days a new Jerusalem
Looking up at Skylon
Lost in a dream
Of impossible things
A brave new world to come. Underneath the Skylon colours in a grey world
A pick-me-up for the nation, the work of Giants
Here in London town
Bells fall silent
Thrown to the ground
Books are burning
Red at low tide
But down by the Thames
Mighty marvels will arise
Science lighting up the dark nights: Skylon
A vision of the future
Rising at the water's edge
The turning wheels of industry, invention and makers of wonders. We'll be the New Elizabethans explorers of distant land
Make ourselves a better place
A new Jerusalem
