Angel of Harlem

Angel of Harlem - DJ In the Night

It was a cold and wet December day

Touched the ground at JFK

Snow was melting on the ground

On BLS I heard the sound

Of an angel

New York like a Christmas tree

Tonight this city belongs to me

Angel

Soul love this love won't let me go

So long Angel of Harlem

Birdland on fifty-three

The street sounds like a symphony

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 this love won't let me go

So long Angel of Harlem

Angel of Harlem

She says it's heart heart and soul

Yeah yeah

Yeah yeah

Blue light on the avenue

God knows they got to you

An empty glass the lady sings

Eyes swollen like a bee sting

Blinded you lost your way

Through the side streets and the alleyway

Like a star exploding in the night

Falling to the city in broad daylight

An angel in Devil's shoes

Salvation in the blues

You never looked like an angel

Yeah yeah

Angel of Harlem

Angel Angel of Harlem

Angel Angel of Harlem

Angel Angel of Harlem
