Angeline Well you lived your whole life like a high wire act |
|
No safety net and the wind at your back |
|
Bet you gave your poor dad a heart attack, yeah |
|
Craziest girl in the whole dame school |
|
Had us all wishing that we were you |
|
But no one had the balls or the follow through |
|
Oh, Angeline I like your style |
|
Saw everything through the eyes of a child |
|
You only gave us a little while to see |
|
Well you burned a hole right through this life |
|
Came out clean on the other side |
|
I guess you're finally where you're s'posed to be |
|
Angeline |
|
I can still see you dancing naked in the rain |
|
Playing chicken with that cross town train |
|
If I didn't know you I'd have called you insane |
|
Oh, Angeline I like your style |
|
Saw everything through the eyes of a child |
|
You only gave us a little while to see |
|
Well you burned a hole right through this life |
|
Came out clean on the other side |
|
I guess you're finally where you're s'posed to be |
|
Angeline |
|
When they called me to tell me you'd met your demise |
|
Well, I let the tears fall from my eyes |
|
'Cause I was stunned but I was hardly surprised |
|
Oh, Angeline I like your style |
|
Saw everything through the eyes of a child |
|
You only gave us a little while to see |
|
Well you burned a hole right through this life |
|
Came out clean on the other side |
|
I guess you're finally where you're s'posed to be |
