Angel Gone - Beat Happening

How do you cry

Angel gone

Cheat and lie, cheat and lie

Angel gone

When you have no one tomorrow

There’ll be no kind hearts to borrow

Your galley slaves start rowing (?)

You don’t know where you’re going

But you go there all the time

You were an angel

Turned into a stranger

Heart-shaped wings and halo

You loved to spin your fables

To the music we were makin'

Then the harp strings started breakin'

It got cold in wintertime (?)

It must be tryin'

Angel gone

To wear a halo all the time

Angel gone

When it gets a little crooked

You find another saint who’s lookin'

Still your heaven is in ruins

You don’t know what you’re doin'

But you do it all the time

You do it all the time

You do it all the time

Angel gone

Angel gone

I see you alone and I worry

The past starts gettin' blurry

Got no one to talk to

And I miss your shouldn’t-ought-to's

And I miss your tender sighs

Should we try

Angel gone

Crashing heaven one more time

Angel gone

Grab Gabriel’s horn start callin'

All those angels who have fallen

Playing Russian roulette with Satan

We’ll ram those pearly gates in

Saint Peter he won’t mind

Saint Peter he won’t mind

Angel gone

Angel gone

Angel gone

Angel gone

Angel gone

Angel gone

Angel gone

Angel gone
