Angel Of Harlem |
| It was a cold and wet December day |
| When we touched the ground at J.F.K |
| The snow was melting on the ground |
| On B.L.S. |
| I heard the sound |
| (Of an angel) |
| New York like a Christmas tree |
| Tonight, this city belongs to me |
| (Angel) |
| Soul love |
| Well this love won’t let me go |
| So long |
| Angel of Harlem |
| Birdland on Fifty-Three |
| The street sounds like a symphony |
| We got John Coltrane and a love supreme |
| Miles says she’s got to be an angel |
| Lady Day got diamond eyes |
| She sees the truth behind the lies |
| (Angel) |
| Soul love |
| Well this love won’t let me go |
| So long |
| Angel of Harlem |
| Blue light on the avenue |
| God knows they got to you |
| Empty glass, the lady sings |
| Eyes swollen like a bee-sting |
| Blinded, you lost your way |
| In the side streets and the alleyways |
| Like a star exploding in the night |
| Filling up the city with broad daylight |
| Angel in devil’s shoes |
| Salvation in the blues |
| You never looked like an angel |
| Angel of Harlem |
