John & Mary
Angels of Stone
The silence underneath the snowFootprints where the grass won't grow revealed.Promise I won't be too lateThrough 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 nightThere we stood beneath the sudden light.And did you listen?It's like I've heard this still sound before.Sunlight prism wide awakeBirds rest on the frozen lake, I saw themWhen day met night, night met dayTouch my hand, I think I know the way.There in the park where we used to playAngels of stone, they would always pray.A yellow room by candleglowPicnic snapshots long ago, just happy.And father's boat, his raging talesThe magic wind that filled its sails could last me.One chance, and it has passed meWhen day met night, night met dayAll this time, I thought that I could stay.There in the park where we used to playAngels of stone, they would always pray.Silence underneath the snowFootprints where the grass won't grow.
