Snow angels

Upon this earth many died so others could live. Seldom do we dance in their honor. Mostly we have forgotten where and when they fell, saddly why.

Oh night and day are in the meadow
so far away from all the love I know

Inside my eyes I see the marrow
born of love there is now sorrow

Just step away from the window
I feel you so close to me I cry

Hear gun fire it's warning
bread floats upon the river

last of us make the crossing
to the land of milk and honey

Oh night and day are in the meadow
so far away from the the love I know

My hands curse the dawning
deep inside the longing

I know you feel me deep inside
horse in the desert lonely ride

Salt of water flowing down my brow
saw the clouds exploding rain pouring down

Oh night in day are in the meadow
so far away from the love I know

Here the promise of dreams long ago
path worn deep I will be the last to go

felt his hand upon the back
pain lifted as we track

Which is the answer
who is laying in the snow

Oh night in day are in the meadow
my love buried deep beneath the snow

War and death suround me
from this world I will go

Children dance upon the graves
of the brave so long ago

Tribute to our fathers
angels made in the meadow
in freshly fallen snow
