Pages of Heaven Lyrics by Ron Wiseman

0

On the night the missiles were falling
And the fires spread below
We danced all night in defiance
With our hearts yearning
High above the clouds
With the shepherd kings and their crowns
We watched the pages of Heaven turning
Turning for the martyrs
Who died taking the hill
Turning for their wife and child
Who are banished from there still
Turning for the broken
Who are strengthened by each fall
And you can't stop the
Pages of Heaven from turning
(la, la, etc - vocal/horn line)
We heard the silence from above
While lightning struck below
We followed the smoke
To see just what was burning
But it was nothing really at all
That wouldn't eventually fall
Just a tractor trying to stop
The pages from turning
Well you can try
And try, and try ohhhh and try
But you can't stop the
Pages of Heaven from turning
Turning for the heroes
Rewarded with betrayal
Turning for the patriots
Court martialed and in jail
Well you can assasinate and ban
And burn every book upon the shelf
But you can't stop the
Pages of Heaven from turning
(la, la, etc - vocal/horn line)
Well I looked out from the hills
Of Eden's broken gate
I saw a shoot sprout forth
From the ruins of the rubble
Like a pebble in the path
That the masters try to pave
Defying them and causing
Their towers to crumble
Turning for the orphaned ones
The abandoned and defamed
Turning for the fugatives
And the scapegoats that are blamed
Well you can twist the law
And deny what you saw
And bully your way to the top
But you can't stop the
Pages of Heaven from turning
Turning against the hangman
Who says his hands were tied
And the wild mob he fed each day
That are never satisfied
Well you can pay the press
And threaten the rest
And throw the book at those
Who dare to defy
But you can't stop the
Pages of Heaven from turning
(Chorus x 2)
Well you can try
And try, and try ohhhh and try
But you can't stop the
Pages of Heaven from turning
