about

Listening to Will and Bill’s single “I’ve Made Up My Mind” for the first time, Cecilie Anna had to turn it off after 1:30. She was already making her song “Before I Go” for their two voices on direct inspiration. Cecilie Anna encourages you to listen to Bill and Will’s song before putting hers on. Perhaps you can hear the mirroring too.
The cover photo is taken by Svein Olav Langåker and portrays Cecilie Anna with best friend Einar Økland resting after a poetry/music assignment. “Before I Go” is Einar’s favorite on the album and is dedicated to him.

lyrics

Long the rope between us
Long the winding road
Jesus tighten all my knots
I see you before I go

Silence
I bet you’ll get me
Silence
Fills up my row
Silence
I will remember
To see you before I go

Long the thoughts between us
Long beyond these shores
Moving in the shifting light
I’ll see you before I go
And when I see you
That’s when I know
Lonely is all I can handle right now
But I’ll see you again somehow
