Lyrics Kris Kristofferson

Kris Kristofferson

Fallen Angel

It's sad to see we may never be the way we were before

We don't believe in the magic of the music anymore

And everything's older now and colder and grey

Oh, darlin' I believe there's got to be a better way.

It seems to me we've forgotten how to let our feelings show

We seem to be so much farther from the dreams we used to know

And too many more, my friend, are dying today

Oh darlin' I believe there's got to be a better way.

Listen to the fallen angels learning how to spread their wings.

How will they make it all alone?

Look into the children's laughter

Tell me what tomorrow brings for those so far away from home.

And I can say I'm not sorry for the things we tried to be

But I'm afraid what we're heading toward is up to you and me

'Cause we got a choice; the future is ours you see

We got a chance to change today

Oh, darlin' don't you believe there's got to be a better way

'Cause we got a choice; the future is ours you see.

We got a chance to change it today.

Oh I believe together there can be a better way

Oh if we believe together we can build a better way.
