This is basically the first verse of Endless Light. I split it just so that it would stop fighting with Brighter than Today for the Dawn slot, of which there is really only one.
Because this is a split song, we want to recognize its reappearance, even though we’ve heard a lot of other themes in between. And we want that recognition to come from the instrumental lead-in, before the singer enters. To do that, let us use this song to establish a piano motif. This especially goes under the slow descents (“Endless lights”, “Untold stories”, etc.)
Mama's been waiting, huddled out - side.
Brother is quietly holding her tight
Hurrying home and I hope there's still time for
One... more... night...
Slowly she turns... opens her eyes
Struggles to stand point to the sky
Barely can breathe but she's telling the stor-ies
One... last... time...
And she whispers of hunters and dra-gons and gods
Wanderers roaming the stars up a - bove
Holding her hand in that moment I wonder,
Can't help but wonder at all... those...
End... less... lights... burning with
Un... told... sto-ries, each of them
One... more... reason to wonder
Is anyone out there,is anyone out there?
anyone out there tonight
