lyrics

The twisted river turned at your door
And on toward the sea
I was heading downstream
And saw you there
I should have thought to linger a while
Having lost so much in haste
Why, I’ll never know, why I’ll never know
Maybe you’d return...
And as the day turned toward the night
I was heading back upstream
I heard the sound of your horses bolt
I should’ve stayed,
Should’ve stayed a while
Having lost so much in haste
Why, I’ll never know, why I’ll never know
Maybe you’d return...

And should I ever fail you
Should I act as if I don’t care
Then look away, look away
And let me be the perfect stranger
For I’m a poor boy don’t you know
Born of little more than love
In spite of it all
Just a poor boy don’t you know...

These days, these days
Born of some utopian ideal
Forged and furnaced in the heart
Then tempered by the insignificance
Of it all
For I’m just a poor boy don’t you know..

about

Ember Rev Cambridge, UK

Ember Rev play seamless sets of rhythm-driven art-rock, reworking and repurposing familiar forms that recall the percussive Africana of Talking Heads and the accordian-led romance of Arcade Fire.
Alternately rattling with glockenspiels then looping and stuttering, it’s a sound that demands you keep coming back.
