Lyrics Archangel - The Walker Brothers

Archangel

Silence
To hear once more
Her footsteps
Down the shadowed corridor
Frightened
You’re overdue
The darkest day
Goes on until it’s blessed by you
Archangel risin' on the moon
Just to save me from this tomb
I’ll cry the tears of time all day
'Til she wipes them all away
Outside my window
On silver trumpets children play
I stand here watchin'
The dyin' of an ageless day
Dismiss young couples
Who go home to their knowin' beds
And watch the rooftops
Where silent shadows slowly tread
Sleepin' their dreamless sleep
They’ll never know
The secrets this room keeps
They’ll wake when
I’m born again
The rent’s been paid
So hurry
Carry me away
Archangel risin' on the moon
Just to save me from this tomb
I’ll cry the tears of time all day
'Til she wipes them all away
