Angel Lyrics

Underneath this canopy of snow
Where fifty-seven winters
Took their toll
Where did you go?

And I believed in you
I believed in you
Like Elvis Presley
Singing psalms on a Sunday
(Where did you go?)

Well she's gone to meet her maker
Back to where she came from
Come to save her soul
(Come to save her soul)
Come to take her home
'Cause it's late and past
Your bedtime, well past bedtime

Angel
My angel
Fly over me
Angel

Angel
My angel
Fly over me
Angel

She took her life
Within her hands
She took her life
Within her own two hands
And no one can tell her
What to do now

And I believed in you
I believed in you
Like Elvis Presley
Singin' live from Las Vegas
(Where did you go?)

Well she's gone to meet her maker
Back to where she came from
Come to save her soul
(Come to save her soul)
Come to take her home
'Cause it's late and past
Your bedtime, well past bedtime

Angel
My angel
Fly over me
Angel

Angel
My angel
Fly over me
Angel

Close your eyes
And go to sleep
Forever in my arms
I'll keep you safe
Forever
I'll keep you safe

Angel
My angel
Fly over me
Angel

The Lyrics are for the wrong song. They are actually: Underneath this canopy of snow Where fifty-seven winters Took their toll Where did you go?

And I believed in you I believed in you Like Elvis Presley Singing psalms on a Sunday (Where did you go?)

Well she's gone to meet her maker Back to where she came from Come to save her soul... Come to save her soul... Come to take her home 'Cause it's late and past Your bedtime Well past bedtime

Angel My angel Fly over me Angel...

She took her life Within her hands She took her life Within her own two hands And no-one can tell her What to do now

And I believed in you I believed in you Like Elvis Presley Singin live from Las Vegas (Where did you go?)

Well she's gone to meet Her maker Back to where she came from Come to save her soul...

Lyric Correction
Cover art for Angel lyrics by Eurythmics

great song about loss - any other insights

Cover art for Angel lyrics by Eurythmics

With the lines

"She took her life Within her hands She took her life Within her own two hands And no-one can tell her What to do now"

it suggests to me that she comitted suicide. Possibly a child?

Cover art for Angel lyrics by Eurythmics

I think suicide may be correct but that of an older person, where 57 winters took their toll.

Cover art for Angel lyrics by Eurythmics

Somebody committing suicide due to illness, possibly mental. "No one" being the doctors.
