St. Stephen's Cross Lyrics - Inland Territory - Vienna Teng

He was there the night the wall came down. 

He lost her in the endless crowd, 

In the shadow of St. Stephen's cross. 

He sent cries aloft for his fellow man, 

His fingers slipping from her hand, 

The rain clouds prowling overhead. 

She was there the night the wall came down. 

She faded into that newborn crowd 

Like a warning of what could be lost. 

Through the perforated night she ran, 

Her fingers slipping from his hand, 

And she breathed in freedom 

Before daylight tread.

They were there the night the wall was drowned 

In the surging of that tidal crowd: 

An old world made new 

On the same holy ground. 

She found him standing, looking lost 

In the shadow of St. Stephen's cross, 

And he closed his eyes and heard no sound 

But her breathing warm against his mouth.
