Lyrics The John Butler Trio

The John Butler Trio

Seeing Angels

Why do I deserve such a visit

From the one I thought I'd never meet.

Beyond my greatest expectations.

You exceeded everything.

Well here I am

Take me for what you see

For I'm transparent in the light of you.

And look inside,

See that fire burning bright

The same one you rekindled inside me

My mouth was dry

only you quenched my thirst

I thought I was last

You told me I was first.

And I thought I was seeing Angels

And now I know I was.

your wings around me

Feel good they always does .

So there I was

Ain't the same man I used to be

But do you still like what you in me.

For I am frightened

Shed so much I clung onto

The only thing I got left is this guitar and you.

Nowhere to run

Been out here too long

Under the sun.

Am I too afraid

To get some.

To afraid to give myself some shade

I hope and pray I do some day.
