Track Insight / Lyrics
The steeple breathes a silver sigh,
As shadows lengthen, drifting by.
A quiet watch, a frozen grace,
Above this ancient, peaceful place.
I'm carved from granite, cold and grey,
Witness to each passing day.
The winter wind, a mournful tune,
Beneath the pale December moon.
They built me strong, a solemn plea,
To hold their hopes for all to see.
A silent strength, a steadfast art,
A beating stone and frozen heart.
Stone and snow, a whispered vow,
Echoes ringing, here and now.
Centuries unfold and softly gleam,
Lost in a long-forgotten dream.
I've felt the laughter, seen the tears,
Through countless seasons, passing years.
Lovers' promises, soft and low,
Secrets buried in the snow.
They built me strong, a solemn plea,
To hold their hopes for all to see.
A silent strength, a steadfast art,
A beating stone and frozen heart.
Stone and snow, a whispered vow,
Echoes ringing, here and now.
Centuries unfold and softly gleam,
Lost in a long-forgotten dream.
The bells chime out a fragile sound,
As snowflakes flutter to the ground.
A tapestry of white descends,
Where time begins and softly ends.
I stand unmoved, a silent guide,
Watching the world flow by outside.
A constant presence, firm and true,
Holding memories, old and new.
This alpine peace, a sacred trust,
Turning to stardust, into dust.
Stone and snow, a whispered vow,
Echoes ringing, here and now.
Centuries unfold and softly gleam,
Lost in a long-forgotten dream.
The organ swells, a holy grace,
Filling this sacred, quiet space.
A choir sings, a heavenly choir,
Lifting spirits ever higher.
Stone and snow, a whispered vow,
Echoes ringing, here and now.
Centuries unfold and softly gleam,
Lost in a long-forgotten dream.
The snow keeps falling, soft and slow,
A quiet beauty, all aglow.
Stone and snow, a timeless keep,
While Salzburg slumbers, lost in sleep.
