Angel Song

Great White

The Angel SongGreat WhiteFallen angelRipped and bruisedThink on better daysLife is rudeTreats you badTears your wings awayRaise your eyes to star and skyBelieve in fly awaysTake your dreams, your broken schemesAnd sweep the past awayFly lonely angelHigh above these streets of fireFly lonely angelFar away from mad desireHollywood ain't paved with goldIt's just a trick of lightSunset falls on stars of oldAnd blinds you with its lightA spider's web of tangled livesLays stretched across the hillsFrom distances it's glisteningLike El Dorado's hallsThe dream was lightAnd fragrant nightsBut how were you to knowThe streets are hardThey're mean and scaredWhere only fools find goldFly lonely angelSpread your wings another wayFly lonely angelFind a better wayA better dayFrom: "Susan Gornati"
