Angels Of Stone by John And Mary Lyrics

(John Lombardo / Mary Ramsey)
The silence underneath the snow
Footprints where the grass
Won't grow revealed
Promise I won't be too late
Through the dark the iron gate was sealed
Someone came to lock our path
'boost me up, I'll lift the latch,' we kneeled
When night met day, day met night
There we stood beneath the sudden light
And did you listen?
It's like I've heard this still sound before
Sunlight prism wide awake
Birds rest on the frozen lake, I saw them
When day met night, night met day
Touch my hand, I think I know the way
There in the park where we used to play
Angels of stone, they would always pray
A yellow room by candleglow
Picnic snapshots long ago, just happy
And father's boat, his raging tales
The magic wind that filled its sails
Could last me
One chance, and it has passed me
When day met night, night met day
All this time, I thought that I could stay
There in the park where we used to play
Angels of stone, they would always pray
Silence underneath the snow
Footprints where the grass won't grow
