A man is placed upon the steps, a baby cries |
|
And high above, the church bells start to ring |
|
And as the heaviness, the heaviness, oh it settles in |
|
And somewhere you can hear a mother sing |
|
Then it's one foot, then the other |
|
As you step out on the road |
|
You step out on that road |
|
How much weight? |
|
How much?Then it's how long? |
|
And how far? |
|
And how many times? |
|
Oh, before it's too late... |
|
Calling all angels |
|
Calling all angels |
|
Walk me through this one |
|
Don't leave me alone |
|
Calling all angels |
|
Calling all angels |
|
We're tryin', we're hopin' |
|
But we're not sure how this goes |
|
Oh, and everyday you gaze upon the sunset |
|
With such love and intensity |
|
Why, it's almost as if |
|
Oh, if you could only crack the code |
|
Then we'd finally understand |
|
What this all means |
|
Oh, but if you could |
|
Do you think you would |
|
Trade in all, all the pain and suffering? |
|
Oh, but then you'd miss the beauty |
|
Of the light upon this earth |
|
And the sweetness of leaving |
|
Calling all angels |
|
Calling all angels |
|
Walk me through this one |
|
Don't leave me alone |
|
Calling all angels |
|
Calling all angels |
|
We're tryin', we're hopin' |
|
But, we're not sure how |
|
Calling all angels |
|
Calling all angels |
|
Walk me through this one |
|
Don't leave me alone |
|
Calling all angels |
|
Calling all angels |
|
We're tryin', we're hopin' |
|
We're lovin' and we're hurtin' |
|
We're cryin', we're callin' |
|
Because we're not sure how this goes... |
