Calling All Angels

A man is placed upon the steps

A baby cries

And high above

The church bells start to ring

And as the heaviness

The heaviness

Oh it settles in

And somewhere you can hear a mother sing

Then it's one foot

Then the other

As you step out on the road

You step out on that road

How much weight

How much

Then it's how long

And how far

And how many times

Oh

Before it's too late

Calling all angels

Calling all angels

Walk me through this one

Don't leave me alone

Calling all angels

Calling all angels

We're tryin'

We're hopin'

But we're not sure how this goes

Oh

And everyday you gaze upon the sunset

With such love and intensity

Why

It's almost as if

Oh

If you could only crack the code

Then we'd finally understand

What this all means

Oh

But if you could

Do you think you would

Trade in all

All the pain and suffering

Oh

But then you'd miss the beauty

Of the light upon this earth

And the sweetness of leaving

Calling all angels

Calling all angels

Walk me through this one

Don't leave me alone

Calling all angels

Calling all angels

We're tryin'

We're hopin'

But

We're not sure how

Calling all angels

Calling all angels

Walk me through this one

Don't leave me alone

Calling all angels

Calling all angels

We're tryin'

We're hopin'

We're lovin' and we're hurtin'

We're cryin'

We're callin'

Because we're not sure how this goes
