Calling All Angels

Santa Maria, Santa Teresa, Santa Anna, Santa Susannah
Santa Cecilia, Santa Copelia, Santa Dominica, Mary Angelica
Frater Achad, Frater Pietro, Julianus, Petronella
Santa, Santos, Miroslaw, Vladimir
And all the rest

A man is placed upon the steps, a baby cries
High above it hear the church bells start to ring
And the heaviness
The heaviness settles in
Somewhere you can hear a mother sing

Then it's one foot then the other
As you step out onto the road, steppin' on the road
How much weight? How much?
Then it's how long? And how far?
And how many times 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 long

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

But if you could
Do you think you would trade it all?
All the pain and suffering?
Ah, but then you'd have miss
The beauty of the light upon this earth
And the sweetness of the leaving

Calling all angels (calling all angels)
Calling all angels (calling all angels)
Walk me through this one (walk me through this one)
Don't leave me alone
Calling all angels
Calling all angels
We're trying, we're hoping
But were not sure how

Calling all angels (calling all angels)
Calling all angels (calling all angels)
Walk me through this world (walk me through this one)
Don't leave me alone (don't leave me alone)
Calling all angels
Calling all angels
We're trying
We're hoping
We're loving
And we're hurting
We're crying
We're calling
'Cause we're not sure how this goes

Calling all angels (calling all angels)
