Maggie Reilly - Silver On The Tree (Angel Tears)

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...
