Silence, to hear once more.....her footsteps,
down the 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 trumpets children play.
I stand here watching, the dying of an ageless day.
Dismiss young couples, who go home to their knowing bed,
and watch the rooftops, where silent shadows slowly tread.
Sleeping their dreamless sleep......they'll never know
the 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.
(ORCHESTRAL:)
A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
