Shawn Colvin - Cry Like An Angel Lyrics

Send "Cry Like An Angel" ringtone to your cell

The streets of my town are not what they were

They are haloed in anger bitter and hurt

And it's not so you'd notice but it's a sinister thing

Like the wheels of ambition at the christening

So i went out walking on the streets of the dead

With a chip on my shoulder and a voice in my head

It said you have been brought here though you don't know what for

Well the mystery train is coming right to your door

And i hear you calling you don't have to call so loud

I see you falling and you don't have to walk so proud

You can run all night but we can take you where

You can cry like an angel

There were high school night dances

When we played stump the band

We were raising each other in a strange land

There were hard pills to swallow

But we drank 'em all down

Oh the nights were too short then

And now they're a little too long

I hear you calling and you don't have to call so loud

I see you falling and you don't have to walk so proud

You can run all night but we can take you where

You can shout out in anger

You can laugh like a fool

You can cry like an angel

So look homeward baby

Keep your eyes on the sky

They will never forgive you

So don't ask them to try

This is your party i know it's not your ideal

May we all find salvation

In professions that heal

I hear you calling you don't have to call so loud

I see you falling and you don't have to walk so proud

You can run all night but we can take you where

You can shout out an answer you can laugh like a fool

You can call up to heaven

We'll be listening to you

You can sing hallelujah

You can fly like a bird

You can cry like angel

When there are no words
