Beautiful. I came here because i saw a clip about Elton John and he said he loved the song... And so do i now.

Just popped into my head out of nowhere. No telling how long it's been since i've heard this, but made my night :)

[Gawaine]

Everwood brought me here. Such a tender, simple, and sorrowful song on its own. But it fits so perfectly for the season 1 finale to set the mood for the hopes and impending sorrow of the town. When Treat Williams finally enters the waiting room, no words need to be said. The song sets it up and tells us all we need.

I saw Jump Little Children twice, way back in the day. Once at the Georgia Theater and once at the Morton Theater. It's a shame they never got more popular, because they've written some great stuff.

Everwood sent me here in 2024. Who else more? :)

I googled this after hear it played on the TV show Everwood. It makes me cry every time I hear it and especially if I am listening to it before going in for a medical procedure.

[Thombrawley]

I truly believe that this song is one of the few in my life that should have been a big hit, but was not. Beautiful.

I listened this song about 20 years ago in Everywood, I love it since that time ❤. Good days

[chriscurrie]

The first time i heard this in the late 90's ...it ...was like a bolt of lightning hitting me .great songwriting and lyrics. Wish i could write deep songs like this

[swiftieclub.]

I deeply love this song with all my heart.

[cassidyneurotica]

This has been my favorite song since I was 16. It's the most beautiful thing I've ever heard.

[Rob.The.Builder]

This is honestly one of most gorgeous things I've ever heard.

[TheDjTj]

Saw them in Charleston S, C at the Music Farm in 1997 Best show ever.

In the shadows of tall buildings
Of fallen angels on the ceilings
Oily feathers in bronze and concrete
Faded colors, pieces left incomplete
The line moves slowly past the electric fence
Across the borders between continents
In the cathedrals of New York and Rome
There is a feeling that you should just go home
And spend a lifetime finding out just where that is

In the shadows of tall buildings
The architecture is slowly peeling
Marble statues and glass dividers
Someone is watching all of the outsiders
The line moves slowly through the numbered gate
Past the mosaic of the head of state
In the cathedrals of New York and Rome
There is a feeling that you should just go home
And spend a lifetime finding out just where that is
In the shadows of tall buildings
Of open arches endlessly kneeling
Sonic landscapes echoing vistas
Someone is listening from a safe distance
The line moves slowly into a fading light
A final moment in the dead of the night
In the cathedrals of New York and Rome
There is a feeling that you should just go home
And spend a lifetime finding out just where that is

So beautiful, the melody, the vocals.

[Joybuzzard]

Thankyou Rick Beato for talking about how great this band is in more than one video so I kind of figure I should search and hear them... so nice...

[Dantes_Inferno_SGV]

Beautiful song, beautiful lyrics. Why am I only hearing it now?
