lyrics

Half of the way to mama
Time has no purpose
Half of the way to mama
Run with the...
Half of the way to mama
Time has no purpose
Half of the way to mama
Run with the ancient ones

I lost my mother in the desert and now I’m all alone
Have to find her...before the dark comes
Please, sir, won’t you give me a hand?

I lost my mother
I was resting and now the sunset threatens to come
Begging, begging, if you hear me..
Saying, “mama, oh, mama, but where did you go to?”

Didn’t you say you’d come back to, come back to me?
(My mother told me one day)
Swore I heard you say you’d come back to, come back to me
(I was born on Mars)

Half of the way to mama
Time has no purpose
Half of the way to mama
Run with the...
Half of the way to mama
Time has no purpose
Half of the way to mama
Run with the ancient ones
(I lost my mother)
Run with the ancient ones

Falling cross the seas in the corners of my mind
I can’t help but feel like I’m running out of time
Sensations breathe, stop
(We’ll keep running around, til I fall through the space, be consumed by the sound)
Can you keep up?
(Molecules slowing down, shifting wave into my wonder wall)

Didn’t you say you’d come back to, come back to me?
(My mother told me one day)
Swore I heard you say you’d come back to, come back to me
(I was born on Mars)
Didn’t you say you’d come back to, come back to me?
Swore I heard you say you’d come back to, come back to me

Like so many others, this came like a bolt out of the blue and, even though it's well before payday, I had to have this astonishing album on vinyl to prove it exists. The feel of the tunes makes me feel like the Impressions do, Curtis Mayfield, the big spaces and instinctive horns and stuff drifting in and out. Great grooves and I can see lots of ghosts nodding along to this with big smiles on their faces. At last! Anthony Cottrell
