Fallen Angel

lost in the sky i am tangled up in blue
a message on the wire is trying to get through
hidden in the haziness of cloud number nine
can’t see what’s in front of me
forgetting what’s behind

and i look to the seas for a whispered answer
pray that i’ll hear my name
i beg to the trees, tell me where the wind blows
words just get lost in the rain

chorus:

if i were only a fallen angel
would you mend my wings
that i’d fly again
if i were no more than a fallen angel
to you i would sing
that i’d fly again

waiting at the bus stop, driving down the rain
clouds show no sign of breaking up
will i ever see the sky again
i turn into an alleyway, hiding from the rain
i look around to find myself
back on memory lane

and i drop to my knees with my face in my hands
frightened of what i might see
looking back now i had never noticed
providence smiling on me

my back is to the wind
storms are brewing up ahead
somewhere someone calls my name
i turn to hear them say

chorus:
