Smallest Step Lyrics - 10,000 Maniacs

When the day ends and church bells are ringing 

When the valley is shrouded in snow 

When you're feeling that hope somewhere vanished 

And there's no poetry left to console you 

With the smallest step you'll find a way, oh of fate borne 

And life is a jewel but stone will tarnish as dust will descend 

Take a minute and wipe free the luster it'll mirror a day without end 

With the smallest step you'll feel it starts a journey your way 

Oh, they tried to tell me but I'll learn for myself 

And when they tried to tell me you know the words disappeared 

On the wind I was running away 

And when the laughter echoes through you in a pale beaming ray 

And you'll know always and ever within you anyway 

With the smallest step you'll feel it 

With the smallest step you'll hear it 

With the smallest step you'll find a way
