Lyrics

Angel
(words and music: Allan Dawson)

Once upon a dream I held you, broken candles all melted away.
And then I saw you, you were looking like a beautiful day.
Still I look into those eyes, I feel close.
The score has made me wise, I could be yours.

Oh angel.

I've broken many hearts with my easy come, easy go ways.
They don't understand me some days.

I look out across the world,
I see a merry-go-round.
And I listen to all the people,
I hear a circus sound.

Angel, angel.
Oh angel, angel.

If I could tell you, what you mean to me.
Would it matter to you? Would you think more or less of me?
I know what you're thinking, I've been there myself before.
You wonder what you're taking,
But right and wrong and what's left just seem to war, oh Angel.

I've broken many hearts with my easy come, easy go ways
They don't understand me, I don't understand me some days.

I look out across the world,
I see a merry-go-round.
But it's still the same old picture,
When people make the same old sounds.

They can't tell me what I'm missing baby.
- They can't tell me!
They cant tell me where I went wrong.
- 'Coz they can't see.
'Coz life's a few nods short of admission baby,
- Life.
I guess that's why I wrote you this song.

Oh angel, angel.
Mmm mmm mmm angel, angel.
Oh angel, angel.
Angel.
