A song that is far too ephemeral. It grows, flowers, and fades in a far too short a time.
The ethereal soprano vocals of Elisabeth Fraser, who more often than not abandoned recognisable language altogether for a more Echolaliac and Chromesthesiastic approach defined the sound of the Cocteau Twins. As did label-mate Lisa Gerrard of Dead Can Dance too.
In my dream we walked
You and I to the shore
Leaving footprints by the sea
And when there was just one
Set of prints in the sand
That was when you carried me
