[ti:The Angels Were Singing] [ar:Matthew Perryman Jones] [al:Land Of The Living] [by:] [offset:0] [00:00.00]The Angels Were Singing - Matthew Perryman Jones [00:16.66]Talking to stone [00:24.15]Listening to birds [00:32.01]With no more to say [00:36.24]I kissed my fingers [00:40.02]And touched the red dirt [00:47.83]Wandering away [00:55.61]Through the moon-colored field [01:03.42]My heart was a weight [01:07.92]Of rage and sorrow [01:11.47]That longed to be healed [01:17.34]Then I started running [01:21.67]To feel more alive; [01:25.12]To wake up my senses [01:28.88]That slowly had died [01:35.53]And I wondered if angels [01:39.04]Were singing that night [01:55.25]Nothing's the same [02:02.84]The colors aren't bright [02:10.57]Since I kissed your face [02:14.93]And slowly whispered [02:18.75]My last goodbye [02:25.05]Thinking of Jesus [02:27.43]At Lazarus's side [02:32.49]That heavenly sadness [02:36.41]The shadows of light [02:40.23]His eyes saw the city [02:43.60]Where all is made right [02:50.18]And I heard that angels [02:54.07]Were singing that night [03:30.70]The angels were singing [03:34.20]As we sat and cried [03:38.36]Each tear was a chorus; [03:42.56]A sacred reprise [03:45.94]And I finally was grieving [03:50.40]That long goodbye [03:56.79]And I heard the angels [04:01.29]Singing that night
