Calling All Angels

A man is placed upon the steps, a baby cries

And high above him you hear the church bells start to ring.

The heaviness, the heaviness of it settles in,

A mother starts to sing.

Then it's one foot then the other as you step along the road

Steppin' on the road, how much weight, how much weight?

And 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 trying, we're hoping, but we're not sure how

Oh and every day you gaze upon the sunset

With such love and intensity.

Why it's almost as if, if you could only crack the code

You'd finally understand what this all means.

Oh but if you could, do you think you would

Have traded all the pain and suffering?

Oh, but then you would've missed the beauty of the light upon this earth

And the sweetness of the 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 trying, we're hoping but we're not sure

Calling all angels (call all angels)

Calling all angels (call all angels)

Walk me through this one

Don't leave me alone.

Calling all angels, calling all angels

We're trying, we're hoping, we're hurting, we're loving

We're crying, we're calling,

But we're not sure how this goes.
