From the recording WEST OF LONELY

Lyrics

ANGEL ON SPEED

She found me before i had woken
She carried the memory of flowers
She made the night sit up and listen
And the seconds all turn into hours
She was gone before morning had started
She left by the smile of the moon
I can't recall if i'd known her
Or if she'd been there in my room

We are somehow affected by leaving
If you cut us we'll all of us bleed
And i'll find a way to forgive her, i'll find a way to forgive her
She danced like an angel on speed

She took away more than she left me
She left me the place where she'd lain
And the lamplight had found a new halo
Like the face of a saint in the rain
Like a partly believed recollection
Of a dream that you had as a child
Or a promise of new resurrection
In a land where the dreamers run wild

And the note that she left on my mirror
Said she only took what i don't need
And i'll find a way to forgive her, i'll find a way to forgive her
She danced like an angel on speed
