Archangel

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Silence To hear once more Her footsteps Down the shadowed corridor [Verse 2] Frightened You're overdue The darkest day Goes on until it's blessed by you [Chorus] Archangel risin' on the moon Just to save me from this tomb I'll cry the tears of time all day 'Til she wipes them all away [Bridge] Outside my window On silver trumpets children play I stand here watchin' The dying of an ageless day Dismiss young couples Who go home to their knowin' beds And watch the rooftops Where silent shadows slowly tread [Verse 3] Sleepin' their dreamless sleep They'll never know The secrets this room keeps They'll wake when I'm born again The rent's been paid So hurry Carry me away [Chorus] Archangel risin' on the moon Just to save me from this tomb I'll cry the tears of time all day 'Til she wipes them all away
