The Ivory Gates Lyrics


You came in the night, a light in the dark

Shining so bright as the morning sun

The pride in your eyes burning like fire

In the moonlighted skies

Wipe away your tears, tear off the clouds

The horizons will bring new tomorrow

Tears of destiny cryin' endlessly

The clouds disappear in the sky

On wings we ride, black tears we have cried

When the clouds disappear in the sky

Like an eagle you're ready to fly

On the ivory gates

Oh the ivory gates

You came in the night, a light in the dark

Shining so bright as the morning sun

The pride in your eyes burning like fire

In the moonlighted skies

Wipe away your tears, tear off the clouds

The horizons will bring new tomorrow

Tears of destiny cryin' endlessly

The clouds disappear in the sky

On wings we ride, black tears we have cried

When the clouds disappear in the sky

Like an eagle you're ready to fly

On the ivory gates

The ivory gates, oh yeah

When the day turns to night, the secrets revealed

Cries of your soul in the pouring rain

Are torn into pieces, fade into black

Since you are gone in the shade

Wipe away your tears, tear off the clouds

The horizons will bring new tomorrow

Tears of destiny cryin' endlessly

The clouds disappear in the sky

On wings we ride, black tears we have cried

When the clouds disappear in the sky

Like an eagle we're ready to fly

On the ivory gates

Fallen tears merged with blood

Mercyless asperity by the hands of god

Careless whisper, dreams fulfilled

Darkness calls, your life, your blood is spilled

Close to the edge

When your life's across the line

A sacred ride alone

To where the stars won't shine

The times we shared

So far and now so cold

The chapters written now

So deep inside my soul

On wings we ride, black tears

we have cried

When the clouds disappear in the sky

Like an eagle you're ready to fly

On the ivory gates

The ivory gates

Oh, on wings we ride, black tears

we have cried

When the clouds disappear in the sky

Like an eagle we're ready to fly

On the ivory gates

The ivory gates
