Lyrics
The rain has washed the homeless off the street and I could name some others, but that might be indiscreet. I've grown a thick skin walking this beat but there's one girl who still gets to me.
STREET ANGEL, FLYING ON ANGEL DUST, STREET ANGEL, TRYING TO ACT SO TOUGH,
STREET ANGEL, PRAYING TO RISE ABOVE THESE DEAD END AVENUES. THEY'RE ROUGH FOR AN ANGEL, STREET ANGEL, STREET ANGEL, STREET ANGEL
The sky is Scarlett O'Hara setting on the boulevard. She tells the man 'I dare ya' and looks so hard - headband for a halo, crucifix tattoo, tank top painted day glow, broken heel on one shoe
STREET ANGEL, FLYING ON ANGEL DUST STREET ANGEL, TRYING TO ACT SO TOUGH
STREET ANGEL, PRAYING TO RISE ABOVE THESE DEAD END AVENUES, THEY'RE ROUGH FOR AN ANGEL
I'll take a miracle to make a new start. She's cold and wants to give up. But at the bottom of every frozen heart, there's still a drop or two of love. (bridge)
For her salvation's a shot away to get from paradise to judgement day. God bless her soul. She thinks heaven's lost as she makes one last sign of the cross.
STREET ANGEL, FLYING WITH THE HOLY GHOST. STREET ANGEL, TRYING TO GET BACK HOME. STREET ANGEL, NO LONGER FEELS ALONE. SAINT PETER ANSWERED HEAVEN'S PHONE FOR AN ANGEL, STREET ANGEL, STREET ANGEL, STREET ANGEL, FINALLY FREE
