lyrics

ANGEL

Words and Music by
CAT SUMMERHILL

I thought you were an Angel
When you came into my room
Out of the quiet night
Your sad face like the moon

I left my ink and paper
Thirsty for your eyes
I went down to the water
With you there by my side

I lay with my desire
In the river in the night
Thirsty in soft waters
Your sad eyes burning bright

CHORUS
Bound lovers soul to soul
Floating on the ancient tide
They say we are born broken
And the living makes us whole

Blue water soft around us
My love - we fell asleep
Mouth to mouth, breath to breath
Drinking in the deep

Our wounded hearts spoke in silence
Words of tormented dreams
I think you are an Angel
But one with broken wings

CHORUS

In your arms I found my death
Sleeping beauty, sleeping lies
My life slipping by and by
Asleep with you behind my eyes

*****
In the end all that there is
Is this moment and God
Awakening beauty
Awakening lies
Awakening beloveds
Awakening arise
Awakening with you
No longer by my side !

A tone of some world far from ours,
Where music and moonlight and feeling are one'.
