Cowboy Junkies - Angel Mine lyrics
He searched for those wings that he knew
that this angel should have at her back.
And although he cant find them
he really dont mind
because he knows theyll grow back.
And he reaches for that halo that he knows
that she had when she first caught his eye.
Although his hand came back empty
hes really not worried
because he knows it still shines.
I cant promise that Ill grow those wings
or keep this tarnished halo shining
but Ill never betray your trust
angel mine.
Ill search all the time on the ground
for our shadows cast side by side.
Just to remind me that I havent gone crazy
that you exist and are mine.

And I know that your skin is warm and as real
as that smile in your eyes.
But I have to keep touching and smelling
and tasting for fear its all lies.
I cant promise that Ill grow those wings
or keep this tarnished halo shining
but Ill never betray your trust
angel mine.
Last night I awoke from the deepest of sleeps
with your voice in my head.
And I could tell by your breathing
that you were still sleeping
I repeated those words that you had said.
I cant promise that Ill grow those wings
or keep this tarnished halo shining
but Ill never betray your trust
angel mine.
