lyrics

Too many contusions, from falling down
the black and the blue, taste of the ground
your good intentions run deep in your veins
but somehow it’s just not enough
to make it all OK
and all the illusions, things you want to believe
will just make you cry a little bit harder, can’t you see

She’s making angels, red green and gold
at the kitchen table, just four years old

During the weekdays, I dread coming home
to find you there, shedding a tear with the TV all alone
is this the bargain that we entered in
all that’s left of trying to be your friend
your long sought love is waiting
just around the bend
it whispered to me in our driveway
on the midnight wind

She’s making angels, red green and gold
at the kitchen table now, only four years old

So you’re lying there sleeping
other side of the wall
I must admit I feel so relieved to take my rest from it all
it’s not the words that you say, it’s the look in your eye
if it was anyone else, it’d surely be alright

And there’s always an angel
at the back of my mind
could it be to good to be true
for I’ve been so unkind

She’s making angels, red green and gold
at the kitchen table now, only four years old
at the kitchen table Lord, only four years old.
