Older Angel Songtext

von Kate Campbell

I don't know
Who dug this hole
We're standing in
All I know is that
It's dark and deep
We've cried out
To heaven
And lifted up
Our hands
But I kind of got
This feeling
We ain't getting
Nowhere man

We need
An older angel
If we're
Gonna make it through
One who's been around
This block
We're on a time or two
If he knows
All the angles
Then we might
Have a prayer
We need
An older angel tonight
If we're gonna get there

People make
Their choices
I have heard it said
Maybe that's the truth
Or maybe not
When you're lying
In this clover
With a bullet
In your heart
Tell me what
It really matters
When the shooter
Finds the mark

One who knows the score
Who's walked
Through the doors of heaven
One who's been around
One who's fallen down
And learned to fly again
