On this momentous day

Curious seduction

The most striking thing

Changes colour and its shape

Hissing words of no safety any more

On this momentous day

Already in position

So delicate so clean

I forget to leave

And my name has long long gone

Hey James if you wish the race is on

Hey James if you please the chase is on

I'm ready ready ready to recall

I'm ready ready ready

To recall the visual

On this momentous day

The story's in the background

No need to tell

I've got shadows crossing my face

As I run my hands along

On this momentous day

Seems to've cracked wide open

Leaving nothing left to dream

I hear myself scream

Is this land or more sky

Did you notice that we moved

Moved fast

Along this thin strip

Flashing

Do you think we were followed here

Follow me

'Cause there'll be no flight

There'll be a killing

Hey James if you wish

The race is on

Hey James if you please

The chase is on

I'm ready ready ready

To recall

I'm ready ready ready

To recall

I'm ready ready ready

To recall

I'm ready ready ready

To recall the visual

On this momentous day

No effort is made

No visible sign

Of any kind

That this will ever end
