| All around me strangers scurry —
|
| In a crowd but all alone.
|
| Got to hurry — pack my worries,
|
| Feel the arms that I call home.
|
| I am lonely — I am lost,
|
| Inside my private holocaust.
|
| O' steel angel please carry me —
|
| Fly me to my love,
|
| From cold Earth far beneath me To the Heavens high above.
|
| All aboard but fly so-low
|
| (Chocks away) The engines start.
|
| Crossing oceans of emotion that circumnavigate my heart.
|
| Have you ever talked to someone,
|
| Not recalled a single word?
|
| The gentle rhythm of the humdrum,
|
| It was the only sound i heard.
|
| Why was I not so astute to stow
|
| My dreams a parachute?
|
| O' steel angel please carry me —
|
| Fly me to my love,
|
| From cold Earth far beneath me To the Heavens high above.
|
| It seems they never sensed how time was passing,
|
| Deep in the silence and the cold.
|
| Sat living, breathing, drinking, laughing —
|
| While Death lay sleeping in the hold.
|
| Then my eyes beheld a vision,
|
| A beaty Brighter than the Stars
|
| One singe spark — and then ignition,
|
| Bathe my flesh and heal the scars.
|
| The hand that dared to touch God’s knife,
|
| But 'Isle Of Jura' - I love life.
|
| O' steel angel please carry me —
|
| Fly me to my love,
|
| From cold Earth far beneath me To the Heavens high above. |
