[Verse 1] Through the smoke and crushing steam I watch you in your endless dream My golden wings fold cross my chest While you lie there, never rest They said that I was unfaithful then Now heaven's walls keep you in sin [Chorus] Oh Oh Oh Build your ladder made of light Through the darkness of your night I'll wait here in the crystal blue Where smoke can never break through (Background vocals: *oh oh, calling out my name*) [Verse 2] With my harp I play these days Though on Earth I turned away Your face contorts in dancing heat While devils dance around your feet But still you look up to the sky Where I stand with tears to cry [Chorus] Build your ladder made of light Through the darkness of your night I'll wait here in the crystal blue Where smoke can never break through (Background vocals: *oh oh, calling out my name*) [Verse 3] I am peace and quiet now Stars and suns and sacred vows The evening calm, the morning light The friend who speaks into the night But when you think of what they said The oil burns you in their stead [Chorus] Oh Oh Oh Build your ladder made of light Through the darkness of your night I'll wait here in the crystal blue Where smoke can never break through (Background vocals: *Ohh ohh, calling out my name*) [Outro] *Keep building up... keep building up...* *Through heaven's walls... through heaven's walls...* *I'll wait for you... I'll wait for you...* My love, keep building up to me...
