Quietly slipping away are the fertile ties 

that have bound us. 

Behind its subtle ways you know this world 

can hide and surround us. 

And living in a lonely room beneath the 

tomb oh, of another sky 

they tell me that it's a shame not a word 

was spoken as the bottom line was broken, 

but it's coming back again. 



And after all this time 

the stillness still can shake me 

to the corners of my mind 

where the Angel Fire 

oh, the Angel Fire shines. 



She held me like the rest and wore her 

summer dress so full of flowers. 

And just as if to stay we loved along the 

way but the time was not ours. 

And standing there beneath the sun 

I watched the river run 

oh, as the kids float by. 

It was a father and a son who made a simple 

turning into a permanent good-bye, 

but let's give it one more try. 



And after all this time 

the stillness still can shake me 

to the corners of my mind 

where the Angel Fire 

oh, the Angel Fire shines. 



Well, she held us in her morning 

this one last time and we will be gone. 

And looking up we watched the angels 

paint the sky. 

And with the passion of a picture 

we made our silent ride down 

just happy with this portion of our lives 



And after all this time 

the stillness still can shake me 

to the corners of my mind 

where the Angel Fire, 

oh, the Angel Fire shines.
