lyrics
I’m brave
but I know I’m close to broke again
it’s late in the game
but I’ve still got magic to spend
I don’t understand it all
but I know there’s beauty
in the catch and fall
on days like these
I move the chairs outside
I’ve got all the green leaves in Eden
with nothing left to hide
yeah they can try to sell me anything
but I’m only buying
what time cannot divide
maybe love is just the way you are
when you look past me, so quiet and far
maybe your heart outshines my galaxy
with one simple, silent star
well I measured every heavy atom
between us there
now I’m defending my sight lines
and bracing for
your uranium stare
yeah you could soar like Superman
and I would hold your cape tight
in my two lead hands
maybe love is just the way you are
when you look past me, so quiet and far
maybe your heart outshines my galaxy
with one simple, silent star
so I’ll keep tuning in
to every frequency you play
match the atmospheric pressure
of all the storms you send away
and some day soon you’ll find me
near your distant, island shore
surfacing in the breakers
reaching for your golden oar
maybe love is just the way you are
when you look past me, so quiet and far
maybe your heart outshines my galaxy
with one simple, silent star
but I know I’m close to broke again
it’s late in the game
but I’ve still got magic to spend
I don’t understand it all
but I know there’s beauty
in the catch and fall
on days like these
I move the chairs outside
I’ve got all the green leaves in Eden
with nothing left to hide
yeah they can try to sell me anything
but I’m only buying
what time cannot divide
maybe love is just the way you are
when you look past me, so quiet and far
maybe your heart outshines my galaxy
with one simple, silent star
well I measured every heavy atom
between us there
now I’m defending my sight lines
and bracing for
your uranium stare
yeah you could soar like Superman
and I would hold your cape tight
in my two lead hands
maybe love is just the way you are
when you look past me, so quiet and far
maybe your heart outshines my galaxy
with one simple, silent star
so I’ll keep tuning in
to every frequency you play
match the atmospheric pressure
of all the storms you send away
and some day soon you’ll find me
near your distant, island shore
surfacing in the breakers
reaching for your golden oar
maybe love is just the way you are
when you look past me, so quiet and far
maybe your heart outshines my galaxy
with one simple, silent star

The new live EP by Ryan W. Stevenson's project reminded me, that this debut album must have been gone down the wishlist... If instrumental Canterbury stuff is your thing, this should be a no-brainer. Firmly rooted in the past (late 60s, 70s), nevertheless with a fresh sound. Guests incude The Tangent's Andy Tillison and Soft Machine's Theo Travis.

In 2019, I was in Salisbury and attended the Alphabet Business Convention without knowing any artist. Lost Crowns was my favourite band that played there.

got recc'd this on youtube and loved it- reminds me a lot of late 60's and early 70's records i used to hear playing out of my parents' stereo on sweltering summer days.

Blurring Into Motion
by Charlie Cawoodsupported by 11 fans who also own “Simple Silent Star”
More or less I should text a praise quite similar to that for 'The Divine Abstract’. Well, here no multi-ethno insruments are listed; with exception of bodhran. But this album is as colorful as its precursor and i.m.o. reveals even more shrewdly balanced complexities, which again lead to feel peacefully perplexed or exited or (please don't laugh) "healed"; while & after listening. Fans of e.g. Oregon, M. Oldfield, yMusic or Bang on a Can's melodic works should check Charlie Cawoods marvels.
