Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Another hard day in the city
Sweat pourin' down, oh, it ain't too pretty
Workin' your fingers to the bone
Tryin' to get blood from a stone
Whip, it cracks just like thunder
Some survive her, most go under
Dancin' this ball and chain around
There ain't no dirt to be found
[Verse 2]
(Angel of the city)
Now you're watchin' over me
(Angel of the city)
Tell me, where can you be?
In time, I'll find you, angel of the city
[Verse 3]
The streets, they scream with desire
The air is thick with dreams on fire
And this ain't any kind of life
Livin' on the edge of a knife
[Verse 4]
(Angel of the city)
Are you watchin' over me?
(Angel of the city)
Tell me, where can you be?
In time, I'll find you, angel of the city, yeah
(Angel of the city)
Come on, show your face
(Angel of the city)
Free me from this place
In time, I'll find you
[Verse 5]
Heaven, send her to my door
I can't hide away here anymore
[Verse 6]
(Angel of the city)
Are you watchin' over me?
(Angel of the city)
Tell me, where can you be?
In time, you know I'll find you
In time, you know I'll find you
In time, I'll find you, angel of the city
[Verse 7]
(Angel of the city)
(Angel of the city) Angel
(Angel of the city) It's just another hard day, yeah
(Angel of the city) Sweat pourin' down my face
(Angel of the city) My angel
(Angel of the city) My angel
(Angel of the city) Another hard day
(Angel of the city) My angel girl
(Angel of the city) Oh, yeah
(Angel of the city)
(Angel of the city) Just another hard day
(Angel of the city) Yeah, sweat pourin' down my face
(Angel of the city)
(Angel of the city)
