Breaths of Paradise Re-re-recorded


Rattle on you writer of emotions 
Conjure up the motions in my feet 
Make them carry endlessly and one before the other 
Take them out the door and march them through the streets


Weave your words into a singing fabric 
Make me whistle as I dress myself in colours bold and ready 
Take me by the shoulders as the wings which you have placed upon them 
Lift me up and hold them cool and steady


Tell me of the man they shot in Brixton 
Tell me so I know what they have done 
Tell me that they put a hole into one of my brothers 
And the blood that spilled out flowed through everyone


I think I saw an angel 
I think I saw an angel 
I think I saw an angel in the sky


So sing for me a memory of everything that's missing 
And I'll join you in the distance when we're back to where we came from 
Living carelessly indifferent cause all the wrong's impossible 
And the hope I thought I lost is born again


And I'll know you're an angel with light shining through your wisdom 
By the way that you go floating through the air 
Margarita, all the things you never said 
Take me with you when you're flying over there


I think I saw an angel 
I think I saw an angel 
I think I saw an angel in the sky
I think I saw an angel 
I think I saw an angel 
I think I saw an angel in the sky
