Angeline

-----------------------

There's a name on the wall
but you can't make it out
there's a noise in the hall
but there's no one about

so you sneak out of bed,
hopeing you'll catch Angeline
your face is growing dark
'coz you fold out your heart, Angeline.

There's a crack in the window,
now there's snow on the floor
there's a wind out there howling,
but you want to make sure
as you light up a candle
she knocks on your door, Angeline

Then your face is growing pale, as you spell out her name,
Angeline

Angeline, you've got nothing to fear,
it's only me, you're in for a treat
Angeline, I wish you'd see the other me
the one you're about to release

You've heard all about her,
but you haven't seen her face
when she enters your room, you're no longer afraid
'coz you'll now that if you'll die, you'll die with a smile, Angeline

You just stare for a while, then closing your eyes and believe.

Angeline, you've got nothing to fear,
it's only me, you're in for a treat
Angeline, I wish you'd see the other me
the one you're about to release

her hair is untidy, her eyes they look mild
she has a rope hanging 'round her,
it was made for her child
as she unfolds her gown,
you see her shoulders they're burned from the sun

so you stretch out your hand, just to see if you can, but she's gone.

Angeline, you've got nothing to fear,
it's only me, you're in for a treat
Angeline, I'd wish you'd see the other me
the one you're about to release
the one you're about to release.
