Lyrics
Angel falling into place
Balancing an act of faith
You get yours when I get mine
The space between is a lonely line
The strange decay of ancient wine
Empty nights and empty days
I’d love to baby but we’re too late
Space without time, time without space
An empty bed that’s been disgraced
A distant dream I can’t erase
Love needs love the missing ace
Close your eyes and there’s my face
Take what you get cuz you got what it takes
There’s plenty of accidents but there ain’t no mistakes
