To your soaring angel’s breath I lay in a lull
You’re so inspired, perfect in every song
Oh the charm you’ve lain on me
A spell no one else can see, all our own

Got a girl in the doorway and I’m staring past
You send me howling in front of the looking glass
Now you’re turned away from me
And still I can’t believe that it’s enough

Angel on earth, a rare find
You were one
You were one with the sounds in my mind
Yeah, you were an angel

O’er my bed you shimmer and circle the room
The grace of your art overpowers the gloom
And your dark and haunted eyes
All the while telling me it’ll be alright

Angel on earth…

How did it feel being swept away when the current shut you down
Hanging on as it choked off the gift you brought to the world
Water rushing in to defeat your last song

Angel…
