Lyrics Angels & Promises - Big Country

Angels & Promises

Heavy is the silence
That hangs upon my soul
The velvet glove of the honest truth
As unmistakable as you
Here we are all bound together
No matter win or lose
Angels and promises
Prisoners and silences
(Say a prayer)
The factory of the innocents
The souls that you can’t see
Your father’s hands weren’t the only fists
That took the best of me
Here we are in the same ship sailing
Across an unknown sea
Angels and promises
Prisoners and silences
Cardinals, sinners and saints
In this world, we’re all the same
I’m walking on a mountain without a summit
Swimming in a sea without a shore
Say a prayer
Say a prayer
Angels and promises
Prisoners and silences
Say a prayer
Say a prayer
Say a
Oh Lord
Where did the feeling go?
Oh Lord
I never felt so low
Oh-oh
Angels and promises
Oh-oh
