Lyrics

Even Angels
Kay Bell/Wendy Ford
V1
Are you frightened of rejection?
Lost in bottles you’re slow-kissing
You love ‘em till they’re empty
Cause they numb away your pain.
Moments of perfection are
Drowned by floods of sadness.
I’m trying to steer your spirit free;
Stop pulling on the reins.
CH/TAG
Even angels take a tumble when they fly into walls,
But there’s a cushion of love that saves them when they fall.
V2
I hear distant screams of torture;
Someone else’s choking.
They’re trying to float on water, but
The fire’s closing in.
And there’s oil on the surface of
The liquid that surrounds them.
They’ll soon be suffocating on
The fumes of smoke and gin.
CH/TAG
Even angels take a tumble when they fly into walls,
But there’s a cushion of love that saves them when they fall.
Bridge
Put the past to bed tonight; just let it be.
Free your troubled mind and walk beside me.
CH/TAG
Even angels take a tumble when they fly into walls,
But there’s a cushion of love that saves them when they fall.
V3
Aren’t you tired of riding
A roundabout to nowhere?
You’ve been around and back again,
A million times or more.
Leave that baggage here;
There’s too much guilt to carry.
The sun will rise tomorrow with
A new day to explore.
CH/TAG
Even angels take a tumble when they fly into walls,
But there’s a cushion of love that saves them when they fall.
OUTRO
Even angels.
Even angels.
Even angels fall
