The Walker Brothers - Archangel lyrics

Engel Silence To hear once more Her footsteps Down the shadowed corridor Frightened You're overdue The darkest day Goes on until it's blessed by you Archangel risin' on the moon Just to save me from this tomb I'll cry the tears of time all day 'Til she wipes them all away Outside my window On silver trumpets children play I stand here watching The dying of an ageless day Dismiss young couples Who go home to their knowing bed And watch the rooftops Where silent shadows slowly spread Sleeping their dreamless sleep They'll never know The secrets this room keeps They'll wake when I'm born again The rent's been paid So hurry Carry me away Archangel risin' on the moon Just to save me from this tomb I'll cry the tears of time all day 'Til she wipes them all away
