lyrics
What can you tell me?
What did you bring?
Reaching high, amber fire
The sorrow that stings
I’ve heard the stories
You’ve heard them too
Now it’s night, Lamps alight
A memory exhumed
Lamplighter, Lamplighter, show me the way
With your hand upon the veil of dark
Sure night will fade
Lamplighter, Lamplighter, lights lead the way
When you’re hanging on, to morning song
You’ll only pray
Lamplighter sing a song, Lamplighter hanging on
Allow your eyes to rest tonight
The light you breathe, will always shine
Night at your window, Darkness your smile
Through the steam, Embers gleam,
A torch in the wild
A rich man, a fable, a pauper, a child
Through the streets, glances meet,
Creations reviled
Sweet sang the whisper, strange songs of fate
Creeping low, undertow
The specter of hate
Dawn be thy maker, sunset thy grave
The ghost of sun, all we’ve done
A shadow enslaved
Lamplighter, Lamplighter, show me the way
With your hand upon the veil of dark
Sure night will fade
Lamplighter, Lamplighter, lights lead the way
When you’re hanging on, to morning song
You’ll only pray
Lamplighter sing a song, Lamplighter hanging on
Allow your eyes to rest tonight
The light you breathe, will always shine
Bring the Night to Life!
Nightmares will end,
Darkness my friend
What did you bring?
Reaching high, amber fire
The sorrow that stings
I’ve heard the stories
You’ve heard them too
Now it’s night, Lamps alight
A memory exhumed
Lamplighter, Lamplighter, show me the way
With your hand upon the veil of dark
Sure night will fade
Lamplighter, Lamplighter, lights lead the way
When you’re hanging on, to morning song
You’ll only pray
Lamplighter sing a song, Lamplighter hanging on
Allow your eyes to rest tonight
The light you breathe, will always shine
Night at your window, Darkness your smile
Through the steam, Embers gleam,
A torch in the wild
A rich man, a fable, a pauper, a child
Through the streets, glances meet,
Creations reviled
Sweet sang the whisper, strange songs of fate
Creeping low, undertow
The specter of hate
Dawn be thy maker, sunset thy grave
The ghost of sun, all we’ve done
A shadow enslaved
Lamplighter, Lamplighter, show me the way
With your hand upon the veil of dark
Sure night will fade
Lamplighter, Lamplighter, lights lead the way
When you’re hanging on, to morning song
You’ll only pray
Lamplighter sing a song, Lamplighter hanging on
Allow your eyes to rest tonight
The light you breathe, will always shine
Bring the Night to Life!
Nightmares will end,
Darkness my friend

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.
