”When the Angels Fall” (versuri/lyrics) Melodie de: Sting So high above the world tonight The angels watch us sleeping And underneath a bridge of stars We dream in safety’s keeping But perhaps the dream Is dreaming us Soaring with the seagulls But perhaps the dream Is dreaming us Astride the backs of eagles When the angels fall Shadows on the wall In the thunder’s call Something haunts us all When the angels fall When the angels fall Take your father’s cross Gently from the wall The shadow still remaining See the churches fall In mighty arcs of sound And all that they’re containing Yet all the ragged souls Of all the ragged men Looking for their lost homes Shuffle to the ruins From the levelled plain To search among the Tombstones When the angels fall Shadows on the wall In the thunder’s call Something haunts us all When the angels […]

”There Is No Rose of Such Virtue” (versuri/lyrics) Melodie de: Sting There is no rose of such virtue As is the rose that bare Jesu There is no rose of such virtue As is the rose that bare Jesu For in this rose contained was Heaven and earth in little space Aleluya, aleluya There is no rose of such virtue As is the rose that bare Jesu By that rose we may well see That he is God in persons three Aleluya, aleluya There is no rose of such virtue As is the rose that bare Jesu The angels sungen the shepherds to Gloria in excelsis deo Aleluya, aleluya There is no rose of such virtue As is the rose that bare Jesu Aleluya, aleluya Compozitori: Gordon Matthew Sumner, Dp.

”Can She Excuse My Wrongs?” Melodie de: Edin Karamazov, Sting Can she excuse my wrongs with virtue’s cloak? Shall i call her good when she proves unkind? Are those clear fires which vanish into smoke? Must i praise the leaves where no fruit i find? No, no, where shadows do for bodies stand Thou may’st be abus’d if thy sight be dimmed Cold love is like to words written on sand Or to bubbles which on the water swim Wilt thou be thus abused still Seeing that she will right thee never? If thou cans’t not o’ercome her will Thy love will be thus fruitless ever Wilt thou be thus abused still Seeing that she will right thee never? If thou cans’t not o’ercome her will Thy love will be thus fruitless ever Was i so base, that i might not aspire Unto those high joys which she holds from […]

”Have You Seen the Bright Lily Grow” (versuri/lyrics) Melodie de: Edin Karamazov, Sting Have you seen but a bright lily grow Before rude hands have touched it? Have you marked but the fall of snow Before the soil hath smutched it? Have you felt the wool of beaver, Or swan’s down ever? Or have smelt o’ the bud o’ the brier, Or the nard in the fire? Or have tasted the bag of the bee? O so white, o so soft, o so sweet is she! Compozitori: Edin Karamazov, Gordon Matthew Sumner, Dp. Doar pentru utilizare non-comercială. Date de la: Musixmatch

”The Snow It Melts the Soonest” (versuri/lyrics) Melodie de: Sting Oh, the snow it melts the soonest when the winds begin to sing And the corn, it ripens fastest when the frost is settling in And when a woman tells me my face she’ll soon forget Before we’ll part, I’ll wage a croon, she’s fain to follow it yet Oh, the snow it melts the soonest when the winds begin to sing And the swallow skims without a thought as long as it is spring But when spring goes, and winter blows, my Lassie, you’ll be fain For all your pride, to follow me across the stormy main Oh, the snow it melts the soonest when the winds begin to sing And the bee that flew when summer shone, in winter cannot sting I’ve seen a woman’s anger melt betwixt the night and morn Oh it’s surely not a harder […]

”Driven to Tears” (versuri/lyrics In Paris) Melodie de: Sting How can you say that you’re not responsible? What does it have to do with me? What is my reaction? What should it be? Confronted by this latest atrocity Driven to tears Driven to tears Driven to tears Hide my face in my hands, shame wells in my throat My comfortable existence is reduced to a shallow, meaningless party Seems that when some innocents die All we can offer them is a page in some magazine Too many cameras and not enough food This is what we’ve seen Driven to tears Driven to tears Driven to tears What? Whoa-oh, oh Whoa-oh, oh Whoa-oh, oh Whoa-oh Protest is futile Nothing seems to get through What’s to become of our world? Who knows what to do? Driven to tears Driven to tears Driven to tears Driven to tears Driven to tears Driven to […]
