Woke Up This Morning

Welcome to another day in my paradise I open my bedroom window and sometimes I hear many voices in perfect harmony the river singing like a choir of angels Looking for angels from morning to sunset to steal their wings when they're not looking I want to be free like I used to be before I came on to this stage feigning so many roles Time flies with every breath every thought every moment With a kiss he was betrayed all his friends deserted him Innocent crucified like a common criminal in his dying breath His revenge he forgave us But I see poetry in your eyes I see the blue sky in your eyes and I will apologise for who I am failure seems to follow me wherever I go trips me when I least expect it I try to hold on to the right words but it's like grabbing air Time flies with every breath every thought every moment same old story always in reruns Looking for angels from morning to sunset to steal their wings when they're not looking I want to be free like I used to be Woke up this morning I hear many voices of a river singing like a choir of angels Welcome to another day in my paradise
