Chickering Angel |
| Me and Amy went for a ride |
| Just after the rain last night |
| When something I couldn’t put a finger on |
| Made me lift up off the gas and turn out the headlights |
| Gliding 'neath those stars |
| Past those shining Belleview houses and their foreign cars |
| I could feel my heart beat |
| When Amy lit a cigarette and put her hand on my knee |
| I said, Angel |
| I’m sad and I don’t know why |
| But with you by my side |
| I’m nearly satisfied |
| Angel, angel |
| Then I thought to myself, me and Amy |
| We’d be in the clear |
| If I could just rob one of these lucky bastards |
| And high tail it out of here |
| Now when the car stopped I was restless |
| We were just below the rise |
| I could feel my lungs breathe |
| When my Amy started to cry |
| And I said, Angel |
| It’s sad but you know we try |
| Stay here in the car |
| While I go inside |
| Angel, angel |
| Angel, angel |
| Now it couldn’t have been ten minutes |
| When I came out to find what really went down |
| It was the smell of burnt rubber, gasoline |
| Amy’s perfume and the silence all around |
| And it was the feel of broken glass |
| Under my feet and in my head |
| No, it shouldn’t have been Amy |
| It should’ve been me instead |
| And I said, Angel |
| I’m sad now I know why |
| 'Cause with you by my side |
| I was nearly satisfied |
| Angel, angel |
| Angel, angel |
