Touching the last of what is past
Moving silent water fell the first
that comes.
Slow and winding, flowing free
Peaceful music in its sound of distant
drums.
Trust the shallow virgin stream
Danger wild, beware the deeper it
becomes.
Moving highway, twisting byway
Can't turn back.
Sining in the summer rain
Rain that's caught in its flow.
Spreading, shining, silver lining
Gold on black.
Echoes moods of the moon and sun
Sun that shines from below.
Makes a soft and easy way
Left to choose its path will always be
a friend.
Touch the last of what has past.
Never idle river drifting to the end.
Note:
We have tried to create several
atmospheres within the boundaries
of one songs by using the various
electronic devices at our disposal in
the recording studio.

The 1970s was the decade that saw, at the height of the prog-rock movement, the pushing of the existing artistic and progressive boundaries and the expanding of the experimental. One of the most experimental bands of the time was Gentle Giant. The band was comprised of the Scottish brothers Phil, Derek and Ray Shulman, with Gary Green and Kerry Minnear. Lyrically they were inspired by personal tragedy, philosophy and the writings of the avant-garde, French Renaissance writer, doctor and satirist Francois Rabelais. The purpose of their musical composition was -- according to the sleeve notes on their second album Acquiring the Taste -- to "expand the frontiers of contemporary popular music at the risk of becoming very unpopular."
