Tears of Angels Run

Music and Lyrics by Stephen Smoke

You wait for miracles in vain
While they fall around you like the rain
You stand in shadows to keep dry
And I wonder why

I see your watch upon its chain
Hands spinning like a weather vane
(As the winds of) here and now collide
Baby, come inside

Baby, look into the mirror
You can still get here from here
You just need to remember how
Do you remember now

Refrain:
I see you crying, yeah
I see you crying, yeah
I see you crying
Tears of Angels
Tears of Angels yeah
Baby, let them run

Like an outlaw killing time
Like a lawman chasing crime
You sit there watching shadows roll
It’s the movie of your soul

Like a prisoner in a cell
Like a sinner in his hell
(You sentence yourself) to do hard time
For a victimless crime

Like a coffin in a stream
Floating on the dream
Never sure if you’re alive
(Or just tryin’) to survive

Refrain:
I see you crying, yeah
I see you crying, yeah
I see you crying
Tears of Angels
Tears of Angels run
Baby, let them run

The future’s here at last
Feel the current running fast
Baby, can you read the signs
It’s just about time

I see your face in clouds above
Same below just in a glove
A glove made up of skin and bone
(On my own) but not alone

You know I am that I am
In the Holy Hologram
It is what it is you see
Baby, let it be

Refrain:
I see you crying, yeah
I see you crying, yeah
I see you crying
Tears of Angels
Tears of Angels run
Baby, let them run
Yeah, yeah, yeah, baby, let them run
Yeah, yeah, yeah, baby, let them run
Let the Tears of Angels run
Tears of Angels run
