9. Angels
well, she said to me once “I don't know,
but baby, there's a place we've got to go.
they've got angels looking out
across your ocean now.
they're clearing your path, where ever you go,
they're waiting in the sun with the One that knows.”
she said "I've lost my way, I can't see,
but I think we've been there".
no matter where you go, I won't be far,
you're gonna feel these words tonight,
and darling, I'll be here,
I'll be here for you.
no matter what they say, you don't be shy,
you're beautiful in every eye that finds you,
darling, I'll be here,
and I won't leave your side.
and if you go today,
I hope you find your way,
you've got to throw your hate away...
so, don't be down today,
I'll take your shame away,
'cause it's my cross of pain,
each day...
I see you go, you're standing there,
all alone and cold and wondering why.
take a look inside, you might find,
strength enough to fix your brainwashed mind...
do you ever know
how it's gonna go,
tell me, did you choose your road
from a coin toss throw?
but I know how you feel,
I know what is real,
never gonna choose my road
out of fear...
do you really know
how it's gonna go,
tell me, did you choose your road
from a coin toss throw?
see you in the end,
hell I know it's been.
tell me, do you know the way
out of here?
remember what you said,
when you came back home?
I see a prisoner in chains...
the good times and bad times
there, another daze,
I know I'm never gonna be alone...
I see angels with cups filled
with the blood of soldiers,
held high another day...
and in the end you'll find,
if you look inside,
you'll see you'll never gonna be alone.
and you come, here,
to find what's inside,
to see the swarms
of angels...
and if you go today,
I hope you find your way,
you've got to throw your hate away...
so, don't be down today,
I'll take your shame away,
'cause it's my cross of pain,
each day...
no, I don't want to go another day,
I don't want to see another road,
if you don't start to live
and let it go away.
away...
away...
but baby, there's a place we've got to go.
they've got angels looking out
across your ocean now.
they're clearing your path, where ever you go,
they're waiting in the sun with the One that knows.”
she said "I've lost my way, I can't see,
but I think we've been there".
no matter where you go, I won't be far,

I'll be here for you.

darling, I'll be here,
and I won't leave your side.
