Walking Time from Helium Balloons by Elliott Armen
C’est une chanson sur le passage du temps. On a parfois l’impression que les morts n’ont jamais existé. Le silence de la grande maison familiale autrefois si vivante, l’humidité grandissante, où l’on imagine vite le lierre emporter nos souvenirs, nos photos et la collection de carte postales anciennes des Bords de Rance. Le temps fait ses pas de géants et nous avons peur qu’il oublie.

Lyrics
There’s a squirrel
Across the window
There’s the tide
Comming in
There’s ivy
Crawling in the house
There’s your hands
Holding the papers
Fingers
On a cigaret
Grass
On the floor
Flowers
On the walls
The walking time
Drifting away
Like clouds
The walking time
Drifting away
Like clouds ...

Elliott Armen, a 25 year old author and composer, grew up between Paris and his natal land, Saint-Malo in Brittany.
In the footsteps of Elliott Smith, Sufjan Stevens and Andy Sauf, this young Briton mixes the sounds of the guitar and the piano with his own original voice thus building an intimate atmosphere which oscillates between density and lightness, always rooted between the sea and the land
