about

Jono plays great on this tune, which I felt had a Style Council kinda vibe. The lyrics are about a group of warriors returning from battle on a ship.

lyrics

the shadows fly away
we are even nearer still
with every passing minute
feel that unfamiliar thrill
hear that shouting from the harbour fill the sky
we're changed in the twinkling
changed in the twinkling of an eye
the smell of the morning fills the water and the air
the sun comes up early and the storm seems to clear
home calls us forward there's love in our minds
we're changed in the twinkling
changed in the twinkling of an eye
as the trumpets sound upon the shoreline, we reply
we're changed in the twinkling of an eye
changed in the twinkling of an eye
as the trumpets sound upon the shoreline, we reply
friendships that seemed doomed renewed with every cry
yes, things will surely start their ending by and by
but we're changed in the twinkling of an eye
changed in the twinkling of an eye

Aperture

Chris plays guitar with the Blueberry Moon. However his solo Aperture EP release is thoroughly fantastic in its own right. Brilliant playing, brilliant production, and genuinely beautiful songs. James McKean and the Blueberry Moon
