Sunset on candle road
The stores are closed, the street lamps light up
We take the long way home
And dream of where the night will take us

I'll roll all the windows down
Let the magic in, and I'll float out
I've been looking for a way
To let it go and let it be okay for now

Angels of night
Hide in the half light
Praying for souls like mine
If you hear me
Angels of mercy
Carry me in tonight

Midnight on mercy street
Where even beggars find a way home
We watch the stars explode
And laugh about the things we can't know

All these questions holding me
I can't answer them, but I still sing
Maybe the real beauty
Is love still grows and pain still stings even now

Angels of night
Hide in the half light
Praying for souls
Lost and found like mine
If you hear me
Angels of mercy
Carry me in tonight

Sometimes love, it hurts so much
You never wanna touch the stuff again
But, baby, it's the only way
You're never gonna outrun all the pain

You're gonna have to face it though
Before you let it go
Let it go, let it go, let it go

Angels of night
Hide in the half light
Praying for souls
Lost and found like mine

Angels of night
Hide in the half light
Praying for souls
Lost and found like mine
If you hear me
Angels of mercy
Carry me in tonight
If you hear me
Carry me in tonight
