Trans-Siberian Orchestra (TSO) - An Angel Came Down songtekst

Je score:



IN AN OLD CITY BAR 

THAT IS NEVER TOO FAR 

FROM THE PLACES THAT GATHER 

THE DREAMS THAT HAVE BEEN 



IN THE SAFETY OF NIGHT 

WITH IT'S OLD NEON LIGHT 

IT BECKONS TO STRANGERS 

AND THEY ALWAYS COME IN 



AND THE SNOW IT WAS FALLING 

THE NEON WAS CALLING 

THE MUSIC WAS LOW 

AND THE NIGHT CHRISTMAS EVE 



AND HERE WAS THE DANGER 

THAT EVEN WITH STRANGERS 

INSIDE OF THIS NIGHT 

IT WAS EASIER TO BELIEVE 



FOR IT WAS INTO THIS BAR 

THAT I HAPPENED TO WANDER 

TO STARE INTO A GLASS 

AND MY UNIVERSE PONDER 



SO I WALKED UP TO THE COUNTER 

SHOOK THE SNOW OFF MY COAT 

THEN I ORDERED A WHISKEY 

THAT I USED LIKE A MOAT 



BUT AN OLD MAN SOON JOINED ME 

AND ASKED IF I KNEW THE TIME 

ONE WORD LED TO ANOTHER 

AND SOMEHOW I DIDN'T MIND 



THEN HE OFFERED A DRINK 

FROM A BOTTLE 'NEATH HIS COAT 

AND HE SMILED A LITTLE SMILE 

AS IT TRICKLED DOWN MY THROAT 



AND I FELT MYSELF RELAXING 

HERE AMONG THE GHOSTS THAT FAILED 

THEN THE OLD MAN TOPPED MY GLASS OFF 

AND BEGAN THIS LITTLE TALE 



IN THE MOMENTS OF OUR LIVES 

BOTH THE JOYOUS AND THE TRAGIC 

IF THE TRUTH IS TO BE TOLD 

WE ARE ALL PURSUING MAGIC 



AND THE MAGIC THAT WE SEEK 

AS WE'RE SURE YOU HAVE DISCOVERED 

CAN BE FOUND IN CERTAIN PLACES 

FAR MORE EASILY THAN OTHERS 



IN THE SAND BENEATH THE SPHINX 

IN THE DREAMS OF CANDLELIGHT 

BUT THE SUREST PLACE OF ALL 

IS IN THE FORGIVING WORLD OF NIGHT 



AND OF ALL THE NIGHTS THROUGHOUT THE YEAR 

THAT COME AND GENTLY LEAVE 

NONE HOLD THE DREAM OF MAGIC 

LIKE THE EVENING, CHRISTMAS EVE 



AND SO IT'S ON THIS NIGHT 

WITH IT'S PROMISE DEEP WITHIN 

AS THE SNOW NOW STARTS TO FALL 

OUR STORY DOES BEGIN 



An angel came down 

One night to the earth 

A mission from God 

To find out the worth 



Of everything that 

His children had done 

Since that winter night 

The birth of His son 



And then a sound filled the night 

In the cold winter air 

And in the midst of his flight 

It was holding him there 

And as he looked toward the earth 

For the source of this sound 

On that cold winter night 

It was pulling him down 



To bring something back 

This angel was told 

That no one could touch 

But angels could hold 



So on that night 

When the sky had cleared 

Among all the stars 

An angel appeared 



And then a sound filled the night 

In the cold winter air 

And in the midst of his flight 

It was holding him there 

And as he looked towards the earth 

For the source of this sound 

On that cold winter night 

It was pulling him down 



And then a sound filled the night 

In the cold winter air 

And in the midst of his flight 

It was holding him there 

And as he looked towards the earth 

For the source of this sound 

On that cold winter night 

It was pulling him down
