Nightwish Angels Fall First Lyrics

An angelface smiles to me
                        Under a headline of tragedy
                     That smile used to give me warmth
                         Farewell - no words to say
                       beside the cross on your grave
                     and those forever burning candles
                              Needed elsewhere
                 to remind us of the shortness of our time
                            Tears laid for them
                        Tears of love, tears of fear
                     Bury my dreams, dig up my sorrows
                                Oh, Lord why
                           the angels fall first
                   Not relieved by thougts of Shangri-La
                    Nor enlightened by lessons of Christ
               IŽll never understand the meaning of the right
                      Ignorance lead me into the light
                              (Repeat chorus)
                               Sing me a song
                               of your beauty
                              of your kingdom
                       Let the melodies of your harps
                      caress those whom we still need
                          Yesterday we shook hands
                                 My friend
                     Today a moonbeam lightens my path
                                My guardian
