Silence To hear once more Her footsteps Down a shadowed corridor Frightened You're overdue The darkest day Goes on until it's blessed by you
Archangel risin' on the moon Just to save me from this tomb I'll cry the tears of time all day 'Til she wipes them all away
Outside my window On silver druppets children play I stand here waiting The dying of an ageless day Dismiss young couples Who go home to their knowing bed And watch the rooftops Where silent shadows slowly spread
Sleeping their dreamless sleep They'll never know What secrets this room keeps They'll wait when I'm born again The rent's been paid So hurry Carry me away
Archangel risin' on the moon Just to save me from this tomb I'll cry the tears of time all day 'Til she wipes them all away
