When the city of angels fell I was busy letting you down, woman Flying jets all over my city, uh Cool car trails in the skies, ya Is breaking news all over the TV We were here, by surprise I was at townhouse down in Venice Beach, oh no Still in moments

A nightingale sang in Berkley Square. That certain night, the night we met There was magic abroad in the air There were angels dining at the ritz And a nightingale sang in Berkley Square I may be right, I may be wrong, But I'm perfectly willing to swear,

She's an angel My only angel It was an angel I really saw an angel Open up your eyes, shut your mouth and see That I'm still the only one who's been in love with me I'll guess I'll be getting you stuck in between my teeth And there's nothing I can do

There was nothing to fear, nothing to doubt Black-eyed angels swam with me A moon full of stars and astral cars And all the figures I used to see All my lovers were there with me All my past and futures And we all went to heaven in a little row boat I

One time, never give it up Two times, for all the love I got Three for you, where are you? One time, for the hips I got Two times, shaken to the top C'est Murphy qui l'a dit Three for you, I miss you too Everything was going well, no obligation Thought

Hear the angels sing I can hear your voice, I can't hear your voice But that's okay 'Cause I can feel you in my heart I'll be sure to write your name in the sun Where the waves can't wash it away There is beauty in tragedy The heart won't stop beating,

She was the only one Does heaven have enough angels yet? Of my flesh and blood Now I have no calling I can do no worldly good I sit silent I sit mourning I sit listless all the day I've mostly lost the voice to speak
