angel-land

Singer:jim white

i cannot be superman no more. i cannot walk upon the high wire in my mind. and now that i understand the extent of my mortal coil

suddenly and somehow i have lost all my desire. to shine

to shine like the sun. to shine

to shine like the sun. on a sunny day in angel-land

and i guess sometimes you find that the river just runs dry. and you've got to get up out of the boat and walk

and i suppose you might try to find another river

but sometimes

sometimes it's just too hard. to hard to shine

to shine like the sun. to shine

to shine like the sun. on a sunny day

in angel-land

mostly now these days i'm dreaming normal dreams. little things like who i spoke to

or what i did today

i have not written a speech for god to say in years

'scuse me if i leave that undertaking up to those who say. who say the want to shine

to shine like the sun. to shine

a shine like the sun. on a sunny day

in angel-land. sweet angel-land
