Ammonia Avenue Lyrics

(eric woolfson - lead vocal)

 

 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

 Yes 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
