like the angel
They turn the lights down low, In shadows hiding from the world, Only coming out when it gets cold The seas part when they hit the floor, The voices carry on and out the door And everything you touch turns into gold Like the angel you are, you laugh creating a lightness in my chest, Your eyes they penetrate me, (Your answer's always 'maybe') That's when I got up and left A beating heart and a microphone, A ticking clock in an empty home Still tells of these times so long ago, And even though I've come so far, I know I've got so far to go and any day now I'll explode Like the angel you are, you laugh creating a lightness in my chest, Your eyes they penetrate me, (your answer's always 'maybe') That's when I got up and left And each and everyday will lead into tomorrow And tomorrow brings one less day without you But don't wait up just leave the light on Cause all the roads that I might take will all One day lead back to you And like the angel you are, you laugh creating a lightness in my chest, Your eyes they penetrate me, (never cease to amaze me) That's when I got up and left
