Now the music is playing
In a whiskey saloon
It comes through my window
Like a favorite tune

I can walk down the stairway
I can walk down the street
And lay down my money
But it's not what I need

Let me fly on your wings
Rise above these earthly things
Make it all be alright
Angel of the night, angel of the night

There's a weight on my shoulder
That won't let me be
Like something left over
Between you and me

I know there's a danger
Whenever we touch
It's always the last time
But it's never enough

Let me fly on your wings
Rise above these earthly things
Make it all be alright
Angel of the night, angel of the night

Let me fly on your wings
Rise above these earthly things
Make it all be alright
Angel of the night, angel of the night
