Angel Dream Lyrics
I dreamed you,
I saw your face.
Cut my lifeline when drifting through space.
I saw an angel,
I saw my fate.
I can only thank God it was not too late.
. Over mountains,
I floated away.
Cross an ocean,
I dreamed her name.
I followed an angel down through the gates.
I can only thank God it was not too late.
Sing a little song of loneliness,
Sing one to make me smile.
Another round for everyone,
I'm here for a little while.
Now I'm walkin'
This street on my own.
But she's with me
Everywhere I go.
Yeah, I found an angel,
I found my place.
I can only thank God it was not too late.
I can only thank God it was not too late.
I can only thank God it was not too late.
I saw your face.
Cut my lifeline when drifting through space.
I saw my fate.
I can only thank God it was not too late.
I floated away.
Cross an ocean,
I dreamed her name.
I can only thank God it was not too late.
Sing one to make me smile.
Another round for everyone,
I'm here for a little while.
This street on my own.
But she's with me
Everywhere I go.
I found my place.
I can only thank God it was not too late.
I can only thank God it was not too late.
I can only thank God it was not too late.

what in the hell did the last comment mean. this song is about the true love that was broken between him and his first wife. she will always be a part of him?

I'm reading Tom Petty's biography. It hasn''t mentioned this song yet, but it was on the album which was made as the soundtrack for a movie, not too long after he met the woman who would become his second wife (Dana York). In the book he mentions having a dream about Dana the night he met her and he could clearly see her face. I am surmising it might be about her.

How could it be? Take my eyes! Oh colon, semicolon, comma! Suddenly the air is laughter Forget you know—and look at the world As far as the eye can see It was a wild world of words And everywhere The song of the wild lecture Arose above a wild lectern (Smug townies—who thought they could hog the keys to the sky …)
There was the fact that a climate of lectures and rallies Can aid in the first rough forward step But rarely the second The joked how the ships brought the greenhorns to Rutgers Square As the moving vans took the radicals to Rome Wow! Look at these neat monsters on this cereal box! Wow! What great colors!
On the walls—which are tough bandits Talking bricks What can you say about love Except it pisses me off Spinning top—you are beautiful In my arms When you rest …
[This is about an angel? Yeah ...]
