Wingless Angels

Tween now and then Seems like a long, long time I'd duck beneath the radar and I'd sneak across the line Stop up in St Alban's And up in Montreal I'd make pretend I didn't know What was being bought and sold I met a lot of strange folk In this dirty game Woman so evil I won't even say her name She had me from The first time around She held me so sweetly as She pinned me down And it felt so real It felt so right All we ever did was eat and Drink and f**k and fight The deal got bent She turned me in I ducked beneath the radar I was on the road again Strong of muscle Strong of will Weak of the heart at The top of the hill From up there one can rule For miles around But humble is the man Who walks back down And the road is rough And it's hard to see Gotta slow down the pace Have some faith in destiny And I hear those sirens They're calling me Their silver tongues they tempt me With unbridled clarity I dip my cup in holy water Tip my crown of thorns And I stumbled down off the hill With the cross that I was hung Now and then I drift back in time I think about the love and lust That I left behind And it's good by the rose Good by gun Hello to that virgin land Where I belong And I hear those voices Calling me Amongst the wingless angels In perfect harmony
