about

A glimpse into one of those apocalyptic Hollywood futures when cities have become either a refuge or a prison. (This song was probably penned by the same angel who wrote ‘Escape from the Citadel’ for the Earth Rise album!). It wasn’t originally written about Syria but it has become my ode to that conflict (‘Say, can you see, an end to all this agony’). Piano part is by Richard Tandy, guitars by Alex Lowe, and the operatic chorus voice by Lisa Carter.

lyrics

When the trumpet sounds
It’ll be time to close the door
Meet me inside the city wall
And Lookout on the Horizon
Lookout over the sea


Only yesterday
I caught the news as it came through
I couldn’t believe they could be so cruel
And Lookout on the Horizon
Lookout over the sea

Say, do you know
If there’s a place we can go?
Say do you know
Say, can you see
An end to all this misery?
Say can you see

Is it over now
Can we begin to mend our ways
Could we in time believe it pays
And Lookout on the Horizon
Lookout over the sea
