This quiet house We sit alone Reminiscing days gone by you turn the music on We go dancing ourselves round, this old floor again And the memory's deep The song lifts me high And it carries me on Oh we already saved all our graces In pictures and pages, and papers that faded And oh, these angels we raised They went chasing the stars in their eyes So, it's just this old house me and you A ray of sun On this winter morn With the weight of days gone by The clock keeps ticking on We go rattling down, this old road with our Tired feet We got some tattered clothes You grab my hand, you pull me up You resurrect these bones We go walking ourselves down This old road again When the river was deep And the mountain too high You would carry me on When the river is deep And the mountain too high I will carry you on I saw it in a picture show If we're not busy living then we're busy dying And I can't sweep you off your feet anymore But that won't stop me from tryin' Oh, these angels we raised They went straight from our hearts to our hands Into the wide-open blue And oh, these angels we raised They went chasing the stars in their eyes But they always come back, for you
