Lyrics

Down from an icy sky
Cold shadows
Chase another day away
Dark is rising
The light recedes
Diana blowing silver on the tree
Closing in a timeless chase
Sea tumbles
Over helpless grains of sand
Water rising
The light recedes
Diana blowing silver on the tree
I have never lain in orchards
Or in fields of golden corn
I've never walked by moonlight
Or risen up to see a new day dawn
I have never swum in pools of fire
Or sailed the seven seas
And I had never eaten
Until you showed how hungry I could be
Angel tears
Falling down across the centuries
I can feel
Silver threads still binding you to me
Tonight stirs a longing
And the years just drift away
Angel tears
Prove that love never dies
Tonight there's another star
Out in the universe
Time stood still
When I saw angel tears
In your eyes
I have never dived so deeply
Into the clear blue ocean waves
Or thought I could discover
This wonder in the precious gift you gave
Angel tears
Falling down across the centuries
I can feel
Silver threads still binding you to me
Tonight stirs a longing
And the years just drift away
Angel tears
Prove that love never dies
Tonight there's another star
Out in the universe
Time stood still
When I saw angel tears
Time stood still
When I saw angel tears
In your eyes
Bow to the wind
Roll with the seasons
Bow to the wind
Roll with the seasons
Angel tears
Falling down across the centuries
I can feel
Silver threads still binding you to me
Tonight stirs a longing
And the years just drift away
Angel tears
Prove that love never dies
Tonight there's another star
Out in the universe
Time stood still
When I saw angel tears
Tonight stirs a longing
And the years just drift away
Angel tears
Prove that love never dies
Tonight there's another star
Out in the universe
(Time stood still)
(When I saw angel tears)
(Dark is rising)
(The light recedes)
Diana blowing silver on the tree
Closing in a timeless chase
Sea tumbles
Over helpless grains of sand
Water rising
The light recedes
Diana blowing silver on the tree
Diana blowing silver on the tree
Diana blowing silver on the tree
Diana blowing silver on the tree...
