Lyrics Enormous Wings - Susanna Hoffs

Enormous Wings

There once a very old man
Who had enormous wings
They say he saw the world
Through the eyes of a blue dog
There once a man
Who had enormous wings
It was sad the rain had knocked him down
People came to see from all around
He was lying there
His dreams are forever
Entangled in the mud
He’s an angel tangled in the mud
Every soul you meet may be a stranger
He’s an angel
He must be coming for the children
And though he’d like to sleep
The stars fall to the earth in heaps
And he’s got tears in his eyes
'Cause the town is filled with so many spies
They all avert their eyes
