Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Now the music is playing
In the 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
[Verse 2]
Let me fly on your wings
Rise above these earthly things
Make it all be alright
Angel of the night
Angel of the night
[Verse 3]
There's a weight on my shoulder
The won't ever 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
[Verse 4]
Let me fly on your wings
Rise above these earthly things
Make it all be alright
Angel of the night
Angel of the night
[Verse 5]
Let me fly on your wings
Rise above these earthly things
Make it all be alright
Angel of the night
[Verse 6]
Let me fly on your wings
Rise above these earthly things
Make it all be alright
Angel of the night
Angel of the night
