San Pedros Children
From a run-down cathedral that stood
on the edge of the city
On sundays came a sound
I will always recall
It was sweet and complete
And it flowed through
this cold-hearted city
And it sends me a heavenly
shiver to think of it now
Come hear the voices
of san pedro's children
Fill the air - oh-oh oh-oh
Joining hands and voices
for the world to share
And how the cathedral would ring
When san pedro's children would sing
You'd hear them going
La la la la
La la la la la
"vaya con dios, mi amigo
en las noches felices"
I could not understand
but the message I found
'cause the heavens seemed to translate
The words they were singing
And I know that somewhere
an angel is writing it down
Come hear the voices
of san pedro's children
Fill the air - oh-oh oh-oh
Joining hands and voices
For the world to share
And how the cathedral would ring
When san pedro's children would sing
You'd hear them going
La la la la
La la la la la
Time presses on and they tore down
that run-down cathedral
Never will the joy ring
so clear through the town
But on sundays if you stand very still
As the sun's coming over the hill
I swear
Sweet lord
I hear them goin'
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
Come hear the
Come hear the
Voices of san pedro's children
Fill the air - oh-oh oh-oh
Joining hands and voices
For the world to share
oh-oh oh-oh
La la-la la la la la la la la-la
La la-la la la la la la la la-la
La la-la la la la la la la la-la
La la-la la la la la la la la-la .
