harvey andrews - stone and wood lyrics

Loading...

here in the quiet parish church
i sit alone and gently search
for the souls of those whose need
was the seed for all i saw

puzzled by their lonely lives
they took their axes and their knives
etched their hope, carved their dream
to make it seem they understood

stone and wood, wood and stone
candles lit by those alone
coloured gl-ss, a whispered word
do they p-ss unheard, unheard?

here in their rows on sunday morn
on benches that their backs have worn
they sang the hymn, the chanted tune
that told them soon, so very soon

bended knee, their burdens rest
cup of wine, the wafer lest
solemn prayer, the last amen
then once again into the light

stone and wood, wood and stone
candles lit by those alone
coloured gl-ss, a whispered word
do they p-ss unheard, unheard?

seasons ’round and ’round again
young man’s l-st to old man’s pain
young maid’s sweet to old maid’s sour
’til the final hour ahead

in the churchyard here they lie
they know the answer now but i
i sit here and listen still
and always will, until, until

stone and wood, wood and stone
candles lit by those alone
coloured gl-ss, a whispered word
do they p-ss unheard, unheard?

stone and wood, wood and stone
candles lit by those alone
coloured gl-ss, a whispered word
do they p-ss unheard, unheard?
