Lyrics Angels On High - Widespread Panic

Angels On High

Baby rubs her eyes, a far away sleep
Returning home, her soul to keep
Well, if she cries before the morning wakes
Hold her close, she will not break
Angels on high
Ah, the children these days
Sing to their mothers and dads
With love and lullabies
Angels on high
Angels, there it is
Now old man opens his eyes to a darkened dream
Sees only colors, begins to weep
Baby smiles, the earth awakes
Crystal promise will not forsake
Oh, angels on high
Ah, the children these days
Look into their parents eyes
With love and lullabies
What can you tell me?
What did they say?
What can you tell me?
Ooh, that baby grows up, woman or man
Ever so since life began
Return to sender, come back again
Rainbow child cannot pretend
Oh, angels on high
Ah, the babies born today
Oh, they cover the earth
With love, love and lullabies
Angels, they seek
Angels, they seek
Angels
What can you tell me?
What can you try?
But I’m trying to tell you
Ooh, I miss it, can’t just miss it
What did you say?
What did you say?
Angels
Angels
Come back down again
