Hall of Angels

歌詞

We stayed at the barroom till closing I held down a place at his side And drank to the memory that crushed him A lady who'd loved him and died He purely could not find a reason To get it back up and go on Then out of the dark came a stranger Who turned us around with a song He said: I know the pain that youi're feeling I had a sweet little girl And I loved her more than her mother Or anything else in the world And sure as I loved her I lost her Sure as I wanted to die Then I had a dream or a vision Of wonder that opened my eyes I dreamed of a young band of angels That shone like the stars from above 'Cos each had a bright bruning candle Except for the angel I loved And I asked why their candles were burning And why that hers wasn't the same She said: Oh, Daddy, each time that I try to light it Your tears just keep drowning the flame We stared at the stranger in silence His spirit was truly alive If life had made his eyes glisten The diamond was bright in his eye 'Cos everyone who ever loved him Though fortune had torn them apart Will live in the Hall of the Angels As long as the love in his heart Oh they'll live in the Hall of The Angels As long as the love in your heart
