Arms of an Angel

SHE PICKED UP HER WALLET

GONNA STICK TO THE PLAN

SHE'D BEEN LIVIN' IN LIMBO

SINCE THE WAR TOOK HER MAN

SHE SERVED AS A NURSE

OUT IN THE FIELD

NOW SHE'SAWAKE ALL NIGHT

IN A DREAM ALL TO REAL

SHE'D BEEN WAKIN' UP WONDERIN

JUST HOW TO CARRY ON

SHE'D TAKEN TO DRINKING

ALL ON HER OWN

TO BLACK OUT THE NIGHTMARES

LET SLEEP KILL THE DAYS

AND PRAYED FOR AN ANGEL

COME TAKE HER AWAY

DREAMING OF WARM WINDS BLOWING

FEELING HIGHER AGAIN

WAITING FOR HEALING HANDS

HOLDING SOFT AND GENTLY

DREAMING OF A CLEAR BLUE SKY

SMILING FAITHFULLY

FLYING HOME AGAIN

WITH ARMS AROUND AN ANGEL

SO SHE STOOD ON A LAY BY

HITCHING A RIDE

A GOOD DAY TO TRY

SHE HAD THE SUN ON HER SIDE

SHE CLOSED HER EYES TIGHT

LET THE COLOURS EXPLODE

AND AN ANGEL APPEARED

BY THE SIDE OF THE ROAD
