|
You wake up in the morning
|
you punch the clock
|
before you ever rub your eyes
|
and all the breath you're taking in
|
is spent up on some distant longing sigh
|
Remember when we traded in our dreams for drabbest gray
|
for dresses and these stupid suits and ties?
|
I know that you've had enough
|
I know that we've both grown up
|
But something sweet inside of you has died
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
I know how your halo fell
|
I saw you bid your heart farewell
|
You sealed your lips, you thought that you would never tell
|
but I know how your halo fell
|
|
Down...town, is miserable,
|
blocking out these periwinkle skies
|
and somewhere in the midst of this
|
you bite your lip and say your sad goodbyes
|
I am not the best with words
|
I wish I had a better speech
|
I know that there's all the reason
|
in the world for you to hate me
|
|
Corazon, This Sacred Heart of Jesus Christ
|
It tells you that he loves you
|
more than thirst compels us all
|
to ever wet our lips
|
if you could only hear...Listen
|

How Your Halo Fell
