Laurie Anderson - Gravity's Angel lyrics

rate me

You can dance. you can make me laugh. you've got x-ray eyes. you know how to sing. you're a diplomat. you've got it all. everybody loves you. you can charm the birds out of the sky. but ii've

Ne thing. you always know just what to say. and when to go. but I've got one thing. you can see in the dark. but I've got one thing: I loved you better. last night I woke up. saw this angel. he

In my window. and he said: girlpretty proud of yourselfhuh? and I looked around and said: who me? and he said: the higher you flythe faster you fall. he said: send it up. watch it rise. se

Fall. gravity's rainbow. send it up. watch it rise. see it fall. gravity's angel. why these mountains? why this sky? this long road. this ugly train. well he was an ugly guy. with an ugly face.

So ran in the human race. and even God got sad just looking at him. and at his funeral all his friends stood around looking said. but they were really thinking of all the ham and cheese sandwich

The next room. and everybody

Used to hang around him. and I know why. they said: there but for the grace of the angels go i. why these mountains? why this sky? send it up. watch it rise. see it fall. gravity's rainbow. sen

Up. watch it rise. and fall. gravity's angel. wellwe were just laying there. and this ghost of your other lover walked in. and stood there. made of thin air. full of desire. look. look. look.

Orgot to take your shirt. and there's your book. and there's your pensitting on the table. why these mountains? why this sky? this ong road? this empty room? why these mountains? why this sky?

Long road. this empty room.
