Music by 10,000 Maniacs - Lyrics by Mary Ramsey & John Lombardo
|
|
When the day ends
|
and church bells are ringing
|
when the valley is shroudedin snow,
|
when you’re feeling that hope somewhere vanished
|
and there’s no poetry left to console you,
|
with the smallest step you’ll find a way
|
oh of fate borne and life is a jewel
|
but stone will tarnish as dust will descend
|
take a minute and wipe free the lustre,
|
it’ll mirror a day without end
|
with the smallest step you’ll feel
|
it starts a journey your way.
|
oh they tried to tell me
|
but I’ll learn for myself
|
and when they tried to tell me
|
you know the words disappeared on the wind
|
I was running away
|
and when the laughter echoes through you
|
in a pale beaming ray and you’ll know always
|
and ever within you anyway.
|
