lyrics

v1:
We had spring, but it went away
We could've had peace, but we saved it for another day
We were friends, but we couldn't find the words to say
La da da...

v2:
Little matters when you choose to fight
Why be kind when you know that you are right (this time)?
Something's happening, and it feels as if we've lost our sight
La da da...

ch:
Just an angel staggering home from a long, long night
I left you stranded & alone, couldn't make it right
I was right where I belonged
and it should have been so simple
I was tearing you down when I could've been your temple

v3:
When the wheels of disinterest start to spin
What we are, or maybe what we might have been
We let respect get crushed by the will to win
La da da...

ch:
Just an angel staggering home from a long, long night
I left you stranded & alone, couldn't make it right
I was right where I belonged
and it should have been so simple
I was tearing you down when I could've been your temple

-- imagine a harmonica solo here --

ch:
Just an angel staggering home from a long, long night
I left you stranded & alone, couldn't make it right
I was right where I belonged
and it should have been so simple
I was tearing you down
I was tearing you down
I was tearing you down when I could've been your temple
