lyrics

Here we are at the transit point
Two strangers crossing paths
Our eyes caught up in a gentle grace
Of curiosity

I wonder how life brought us here
Is it coincidence?
Two grains of sand in an hourglass
Is time standing still?

‘Cause tonight here we are
Two boats floating in the stream
And we sailed from afar
Into this dream

‘Cause love must flow free
Or it will drown the soul
So we jump in the sea
Surrender and lose control

Eternity on both sides of now
We're touching infinity
It makes me think how lucky we are
For this moment now

A little shake and we're moving again
Into the unknown
Two grains of sand in an hourglass
Is time running out?

‘Cause tonight here we are
Two boats floating in the stream
And we sailed from afar
Into this dream
‘Cause love must flow free
Or it will drown the soul
So we jump in the sea
Surrender and lose control

‘Cause I
I could go on searching
for that moment
but it´s gone
washed away
with the tide
long ago

‘Cause I
I can still hear
the whisper in my ear
as if we were there
weaved together
in the carpet of time
so we are one
in a loophole in time

‘Cause tonight here we are
Two boats floating in the stream
And we sailed from afar
Into this dream
‘Cause love must flow free
Or it will drown the soul
So we jump in the sea
Surrender and lose control

London Song
by Big Big Train

supported by 6 fans who also own “Two Grains Of Sand”

BBT are standard bearers for modern prog, with a sound that evokes the spirit of those legendary 70s bands whilst managing to also be thoroughly contemporary. It's astonishing that over 30 minutes of music of this quality, with such high production values, is being made available for free - and their full albums are also very reasonably priced...

Twilight
by Drifting Sun

supported by 6 fans who also own “Two Grains Of Sand”

When you like your prog to be more beautiful and/or accessible than prog-proggy, than this is for you! Melodic as hell and yes, Peter Falconer is quite a singer! That wouldn't go half the way without the solid songs of Pat Sanders. A great combination of skills ;-) Carsten Pieper

Grand Tour

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
