Tin Angel Lyrics

Lyric discussion by Disaster Chick 

Cover art for Tin Angel lyrics by Joni Mitchell

First time I had heard this song. Listening to it and reading the lyrics it seems to be about settleing. She's thowing away all the momentos she's saved for years from other loves, and this is the first time she's throwing them out. She is also taking a chance and seeing what will happen - this is not necessairly a love she believes will last. Almost seems like she has found someone that she is able to fix - and maybe the previous loves she feels fixed her.
