Strange Angels lyrics

They say that heaven is like TV

A perfect little world

That doesn't really need you

And everything there

Is made of light

And the days keep going by

Here they come Here they come

Here they come.

Well it was one of those days larger than life

When your friends came to dinner

And they stayed the night

And then they cleaned out the refrigerator -

They ate everything in sight

And then they stayed up in the living room

And they cried all night

Strange angels - singing just for me

Old stories - they're haunting me

This is nothing

Like I thought it would be.

Well I was out in my four door

With the top down.

And I looked up and there they were:

Millions of tiny teardrops

Just sort of hanging there

And I didn't know whether to laugh or cry

And I said to myself:

What next big sky?

Strange angels - singing just for me

Their spare change falls on top of me

Rain falling

Falling all over me

All over me

Strange angels - singing just for me

Old Stories - they're haunting me

Big changes are coming

Here they come

Here they come.
