Falling Angel

{atmospheric vinyl crackle} {warm Fender Rhodes chords} (hmmm-mm) {distant brass swells} Streets

are wide and the air is cold

Looking for a hand to hold Golden curls in the sodium glare

No one seems to see him there

{gentle sidechained sub-bass enters} He left his wings on the boulevard

Finding out that the concrete's hard

(so hard) {filter sweep opening up}

Oh, lost angel boy

Trading heaven

for a temporary joy

Underneath the arches, hiding in the dark

Trying to ignite

a tiny spark

{rich vocal harmony stacks}

Dusty boots and a broken crown

Walking through a silent town

He remembers how he used to fly

Now he's just another passerby

{delicate acoustic guitar arpeggio}

Did you lose your way? (ooh-ooh)

Did you want to stay? (ahhh)

Or did you just want to feel the ground?

{electric guitar solo with spring reverb}

Oh, lost angel boy

Trading heaven

for a temporary joy

Underneath the arches, hiding in the dark

Trying to ignite

a tiny spark

{climax with brass and soaring vocals}

Lost angel boy... (go

home now) {drums fade out} {Rhodes chords decay slowly} {distant vinyl crackle}

{final brass

sigh}
