Alan Parsons Project, “Ammonia Avenue”

"Ammonia Avenue"

“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 questions the answers,
Only the doubt will grow.
Are we blind to the t***h 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.”

I've been trying to re organize my music library and as I start to delete wh**ever I think of why it's there to begin with...

I need to adapt your attitude.. I listen to more music than I ever watch TV etc... Usually when working it's going softly in the background too ..just got to have it!!!

If you like a little humor in your music try this link for the Brobdingnagian Bards, a Celtic Singing group from Austin Texas. I particularly like "Do Virgins Taste Better" and "The Old Dun Cow".
