Walking down the frozen street

Walking down the frozen street

Underneath a heavy gray sky

Watching all the winter dust

blow

by

There are ashes on parade tonight

Falling soft and burning

white

We can watch them drift away Into the fading light

Footsteps leave a shallow trace In the quiet of this empty space

But the fire

is burning bright inside

(burning bright)

There are ashes on parade tonight

Falling soft and burning

white

We can watch them drift away

Into the fading light

And the embers start to rise

Reaching up to touch the skies

We are starting once again

There are ashes on parade tonight

Falling soft and burning

white

We can watch them drift away

Into the fading light

(drift away)

Watching it fade

Into the dark (oooh)
