I heard an angel's voice, singing in quiet prayer,
It seemed to pull my heart, slowly straight up the stairs,
I spent that night awake, though you lay fast asleep,
I saw a teardrop fall,
Gently down your cheek.
You still love him but she does too,
She'll take him far away from you.
You still love him but she does too,
She'll take him far away from you.
I crept out of the house, and tip-toed to your room,
But found your body gone
And left was just a hollow tomb.
I think at times like falling
Into the deepest sleep.
I wake and try to move again
But find my body's rendered weak.
I feel that just like walking down a railroad track,
There's ghosts out in the square tonight screaming:
I want my money back.
You still love him but she does too,
She'll take him far away from you.
You still love him but she does too,
She'll take him far away from you.
