|
We met in a bar
|
Out on Chesapeake Bay
|
With her white patent boots
|
And her blouse red lame
|
A table top dancer
|
She would smile on cue
|
Oh those lips of an angel
|
Angel in blue
|
|
She'd been dancin for ages
|
Through cities of bars
|
She was kickin' the habit
|
Of scoring in cars
|
She'd been drained of her spirit
|
All caged up in this zoo
|
A wild cat angel
|
Angel in blue
|
|
And as she stared out into nowhere
|
I thought yes I thought she might break down and cry
|
Oh when I whispered I thought I could love her
|
|
She just said, "Baby don't even bother to try"
|
And I watched as she spoke
|
Her words chilled my bones
|
All her friends did her favors
|
That were really just loans
|
And she never had dreams
|
So they never came true
|
Oh the palest of angels
|
Angel in blue
|
|
And the bees they had stung her
|
The birds they had flown
|
There were guys she could number
|
But none had she known
|
And she never had dreams
|
So they never came true
|
Oh my fade away angel
|
Angel in blue
|
Angel in blue
|
Angel in blue
|
Angel in blue
|
|
