Strange Angel

You've been gone about a year

And still I catch myself a-wondering

What you would say if you were here

If you could somehow reappear?

You never do but I feel something

A half a flyer on a telephone pole

The Virgin Mary on a cinnamon role

A face in a cab flying by

You always send me a strange angel

That's how you let me know you're there

You always send me a strange angel

Then this must be an extrasensory affair

I was shutting down with blinders on

You snapped me out of my desperation

Would you believe you broke the spell?

And when I'm laughing to myself

I know you're in on the conversation

I used to think it was déjà vu

Now I know that it's just you

Playing a trick on my mind

You always send me a strange angel

That's how you let me know you're there

You always send me a strange angel

And this must be an extrasensory affair

I won't shake my head

And I won't rub my eyes

When you reveal yourself

In some beautiful disguise

You always send me a strange angel

That's how you let me know you're there

You always send me a strange angel

This must be an extrasensory affair

Strange angel

You always send me

You always send me

You've been gone about a year
