Stillness filled the heavens, on crucifixion day Some say it rained, I don't know if it's true Well, I can just imagine ten thousand angels cried That would seem like rain to me and you The angels all stood ready to take Him from the tree They waited for the words from His voice And when He asked the Father why has Thou forsaken me They watched the saviour die of His own choice I've never seen ten thousand angels cry But I'm sure they did As they stood by And watched the saviour die God turned His head away He couldn't bear the sight It must have looked like rain When ten thousand angels cried As the sun slipped away The skies turned to grey And when Jesus gave His all That's when the tears began to fall I've never seen ten thousand angels cry But I'm sure they did As they stood by And watched the saviour die God turned His head away He couldn't bear the sight It must have looked like rain When ten thousand angels cried It must have looked like rain When ten thousand angels cried

One fine day in hell The master told a story Someone lied so well He sent him back to glory There are whispers between the screams That this deed can be done Even sinners must dream And I can be the one To make the devil cry I can win this game If all things come together I know it sounds quite strange I won't be smart just clever It's the law on the other side Just a kill lets you run And though many have tried I know I'll be the one To make the devil cry At last my time has come I must not give him pleasure I can be the one One chance or burn forever So I told him about my pain And the life I've been through He just smiled and the laughter came Then I told him that I love you And the devil cried Tears from his eyes Eyes of fire And the devil cried

I stood on faith and the corner of ambition I came here to sink or swim And to show them all that they were wrong And though I never thought I'd make it this far So the curtains are down For the moment I'm someone There were those in the wings who waited, who came this way Now they're gone But there's always someone at home who never forgets who you are And when I'm down and I'm growing old I won't be along no railroad track I won't be bound to a life out in the cold It's been a steady pace to keep my steps between these cracks on Broadway And my stride in rhythm to the beat of home, sweet home When I'm down and I'm growing old I won't be along no railroad track I won't be bound to a life out in the cold It's been a steady pace to keep my steps between these cracks on Broadway And my stride in rhythm to the beat of home, sweet home Can't go on, I'm on the top of my better years I'm going home, it's too lonesome on the bottom rung here It's been a steady pace to keep my steps between these cracks on Broadway And my stride in rhythm to the beat of home, sweet home

Where have you been My long lost friend It's good to see you again Come and sit for a while I've missed your smile Today the past is goodbye Time can't erase A lover's embrace Can't you hear it calling A new day dawning You were longing to find Love's taken you far Away from my heart And I've been here all along Have your eyes failed to find What took you from mine A vision that's faded through time But you sail away Far on a summer's day But you heard it calling A new day dawning You were longing to find There is a way To make you stay Darling don't turn away Don't doubt your heart And keep us apart I'm right where you are Stay There is a way To make you stay Darling don't turn away Don't doubt your heart And keep us apart I'm right where you are Stay

Yesterday the odds were stacked in favor of my expectations Lying above the rest, never falling from the nest Tuesday came and went and now I'm in a little situation Maybe it's for the best, I can live alone I guess Maybe I can stand alone Maybe I'm strong as stone Even though the bird has flown Maybe he'll fly on home Forgive me if I'm keeping you apart from better conversation I'm numb from all my doubt, trying to sort the whole thing out Tell me that I'm smart enough to deal with all the information Spinning inside my head, every word he ever said Maybe I can stand alone Maybe I'm strong as stone Even though the bird has flown Maybe he'll fly on home (Repeat chorus)

We lease 20 acres And one Ginny mule From the Alabama Trust For half of the cotton and a third of the corn Get a hand full of dust We cannot have all things to please us No matter how we try Until we've all gone to Jesus We can only wonder why I had a daughter Called her Annabelle She's the apple of my eye Tried to give her something like I never had Didn't want to ever hear her cry We cannot have all things to please us No matter how we try Until we've all gone to Jesus We can only wonder why When I'm dead and buried I'll take a hard life of tears From every day I've ever known Anna's in the churchyard She got no life at all She only got these words on a stone We cannot have all things to please us No matter how we try Until we've all gone to Jesus We can only wonder why
