How do you cry? Angel gone Cheat and lie, Cheat and lie Angel gone When you have no one tomorrow There'll be no kind hearts to borrow Your galley slaves stop rowing You don't know where you're going But you go there all the time
You were an angel Turned into a stranger Heart-shaped wings and halo You love to spin your fables To the music we were making Then the harp strings started breaking They stop cold in wintertime
It must be trying Angel gone To wear a halo all the time Angel gone When it gets a little crooked You find another Satan's looking Still your heaven ends in ruins You don't know what you're doing But you do it all the time You do it all the time You do it all the time
Angel gone, angel gone
I see you alone and I worry The past starts getting blurry You got no one to talk to And I miss your shouldn't ought to's And I miss your tender sighs
Should we try Angel gone Crashing heaven one more time Angel gone Crab Gabriel's horns start calling All the angels who have fallen Playing Russian roulette with Satan We'll ram those pearly gates in St. Peter he won't mind St. Peter he won't mind
