"Smallest Step" by 10000 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 lustre, 
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
