Lyrics
BEATING WINGS OF HER ANGEL
It's late in the evening and she's missed the last train home
Too much to drink and now she's walking home alone
She's dressed for the summer in the snow
A dress or a t-shirt? I don't know!
It's late in the evening and she's missed the last train home
No money for a taxi and no credit on her phone
The ice and the snow covers the ground
But she feels safe 'cos she hears the sound
Of the beating wings of her angel
The beating wings of her guiding light
The beating wings of her angel
There making sure she's safe tonight
She's watching the shadows as she's walking home alone
Thinking of the evening and wondering if he'll phone
She carries on without a care in the world
She knows he's there 'cos she hears the sound
Of the beating wings of her angel
The beating wings of her guiding light
The beating wings of her angel
There making sure she's safe tonight
Sometimes she runs sometimes she's scared
But in the end she doesn't care
Because she knows she got a friend in
The beating wings of her angel
The beating wings of her guiding light
The beating wings of her angel
There making sure she's safe tonight
