Start of Time
vowl. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh today I'm just a drop of water
And I'm running down a mountainside
Come tomorrow I'll be in the ocean
I'll be rising with the morning tide

There's a ghost upon the moor tonight
Now it's in our house
When you walked into the room just then
It's like the sun came out

I'm an atom in a sea of nothing
Looking for another to combine
Maybe we could be the start of something
Be together at the start of time

There's a ghost upon the moor tonight
Now it's in our house
When you walked into the room just then
It's like the sun came out
It's like the sun came out

And the day is clear
My voice is just a whisper




Louder than the screams you hear
It's like the sun came out

Overall Meaning

The lines "Maybe we could be the start of something / Be together at the start of time" express a yearning for something more, a desire to find someone to build a life with. This idea is reinforced by the opening of the second verse, which describes a ghost upon the moor - a powerful image of loneliness and isolation.
