Some Other Place

from Angels in the Cinnamon Tree by BAAN

/

lyrics

You're filled up with the ghostly light of angels
And the storm rages outside
The flood comes, running down the valley
Too late you see there's nowhere you can hide
You turn to meet your maker, and find empty space
Where once there was a garden, in some other place
Some other place

All that's left is desolation, no saving grace
The villages have burned, and still they burn
There's smoke under clouds, over the fields of corn
No-one is left to tend the land
The work is done, the people all have gone
Where are they now, please understand

We didn't leave you, we love you still
But time is all we have to share
Come seek our houses, we built upon the hill
Journey back to find us there
Black skinned girls and boys playing
Overhead the jets of white men fly
In the churches of the free world they are praying
While flower blossoms flame upon the sky
You run to meet your god, and find his empty face
Once there was a garden, but in some other place
Some other place
Some other place
