The angels in the garden

Are hiding in the snow

You hold them for a moment

As beautiful as long ago



Careless as a child

You live with what you know

You see the earth is frozen

But you believe that life will grow



Let go of what is lost

Let go of what has hurt you

As long as you are here with me

I promise to love you



You see what you imagine

The ghost of something good

You reach into the silence

An empty place where someone stood



I've come to stand beside you

To give you what I could

To tell you I remember

The promises of childhood



Let go of what is lost

Let go of what has hurt you

As long as you are here with me

I promise to love you



All the rivers running through you

All the canyons deep and dry

All the colors you imagined

All the feelings you denied



All the dreams you have awakened

All the ways you were asleep

All the kingdoms you've forsaken

For the kingdoms you will keep

We will keep



The angels in the garrden

Are hiding in the snow

You hold them for a moment

And finally, you let them go



Let go of what is lost

Let go of what has hurt you

As long as you are here with me

I promise to love you
