Archangel Lyrics by The Walker Brothers

Portrait (deluxe edition)

0

[Verse 1]
Silence
To hear once more
Her footsteps
Down the shadowed corridor

[Verse 2]
Frightened
You're overdue
The darkest day
Goes on until it's blessed by you

[Chorus]
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

[Bridge]
Outside my window
On silver trumpets children play
I stand here watchin'
The dying of an ageless day
Dismiss young couples
Who go home to their knowin' beds
And watch the rooftops
Where silent shadows slowly tread

[Verse 3]
Sleepin' 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

[Chorus]
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
