Little Angel

What will it be now little angel?
Am I your lover
Or your fool?
You loved me when I was a stranger
Some sweet exception to the golden rule

You catch one
Then you let him go
Some ugly cracks begin to show
When people lean too hard on one another
They will destroy each other

I always longed for something holy
For something burning with a fine a subtle glow
For many years I loved love only
I only wanted what I knew I'd never know

You catch one
Then you let him go
Some ugly cracks begin to show
When lovers grapple through and through
Oh, what can you do?

There she walks across the room
Sweet light of my life
Am I her lover or her fool?
My pretty young wife

I see her turn and say to me
You know, anything goes
This place is as good as any other
Oh, everybody knows

You catch one
Then you let him go
Some ugly cracks begin to show
When people lean too hard on one another
They will destroy each other

There is trouble, trouble ahead
Bring my best wishes to the newlywed
A steady slumber in separate beds
There is trouble, there is trouble ahead

There she walks across the room
Sweet light of my life
Am I her lover or her fool?
My pretty young wife
See her turn and say to me
You know, anything goes
This place is as good as any other
Oh, everybody knows
