The Alan Parsons Project - Ammonia avenue
текст песни

Is there no sign of light
As we stand in the darkness
Watching the sun arise?
Is there no sign of life
As we gaze at the waters,
Into the strangers eyes?

And who are we
To criticize
Or scorn the things that they do?
For we shall seek
And we shall find
Ammonia Avenue

If we call for the proof
And we question the answers,
Only the doubt will grow.
Are we blind to the truth
Or a sign to believe in,
Only the wise will know

And word by word
They handed down
The light that shines today,
And those who came
At first to scoff,
Remained behind to pray,
And those who came
At first to scoff,
Remained behind to pray

When you can't hear the rhyme
And you can't see the reason,
Why should the hope remain?
For a man will be tired
And his soul will grow weary
Living his life in vain

And who are we
To justify
The right in all we do
Until we seek,
Until we find
Ammonia Avenue?..

Through all the doubt
Somehow they knew,
And stone by stone
They built it high
Until the sun broke through.
A ray of hope,
A shining light,
Ammonia Avenue
