Jimmy Iovine - Angel of Harlem lyrics

It was a cold and wet December day When we touched the ground at J.F.K The snow was melting on the ground On B.L.S. I heard the sound (Of an angel) New York like a Christmas tree Tonight, this city belongs to me (Angel) [Chorus] Soul love Well this love won't let me go So long Angel of Harlem Birdland on Fifty-Three The street sounds like a symphony We got John Coltrane and a love supreme Miles says she's got to be an angel Lady Day got diamond eyes She sees the truth behind the lies (Angel) [Chorus] Blue light on the avenue God knows they got to you Empty gla**, the lady sings Eyes swollen like a bee-sting Blinded, you lost your way In the side streets and the alleyways Like a star exploding in the night Filling up the city with broad daylight Angel in devil's shoes Salvation in the blues You never looked like an angel Angel of Harlem
