Jump, Little Children - Hold Your Tongue Lyrics

Hold your tongue and walk away
Say it's been a lovely day
Say tomorrow evening's fine
Meet me by Saint John's divine

Until discordant bells have rung
Hold, hold your tongue

Hold your tongue and walk away
Say it's been a heavenly day
Angels sing a lullaby
Hush now don't you start to cry

Gilded wing and silver lung
Hold, hold your tongue

I'll say what I want to say
And when I want it said
But tonight's not coming down on me

Hold your tongue until it's gone
All your words might come undone
Say goodnight and walk away
Silent bells begin to sway

Chiming melodies unsung
Hold, hold your tongue

And hold, hold your tongue
And hold, hold your tongue
