Yes – Turn of the Century Lyrics 10 years ago
Clearly this is a musical interpretation (and a good one) of the myth of Pygmalion, who falls in love with a statue he carves ("realizing the form out of stone his work, so absorbed him". Jon Anderson adds a extra dimension as the main character is mourning the loss of his wife and longs for a love - so he carves one. Absolutely one of the most beautiful songs Yes ever recorded...Steve Howe's acoustic guitar is stellar; listen to it, it really tells a story!
