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 question the answers
Only the doubt will grow
Are we blind to the truth
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
