If God Will Send His Angels

Lyrics

Nobody else here, baby
 No one here to blame
 No one to point the finger
 It's just you and me and the rain
 It's the blind leading the blond
 It's the stuff, it's the stuff of country songs
 Hey, if God will send His angels
 And if God will send a sign
 And if God will send His angels
 Will everything be alright?
 ♪
 God has got his phone off the hook, babe
 Would he even pick up if he could?
 It's been a while since we saw that child
 Hangin' 'round this neighbourhood
 You see his mother dealing in a doorway
 See Father Christmas with a begging bowl
 And Jesus' sister's eyes are blistered
 The High Street never looked so low
 It's the blind leading the blond
 It's the cops collecting for the cons
 If God will send His angels
 And if God will send a sign
 Well, if God will send His angels
 Where do we go?
 Where do we go?
 ♪
 Jesus never let me down
 You know Jesus used to show me the score
 Then they put Jesus in show business
 Now it's hard to get in the door (angel's way)
 It's the stuff, it's the stuff of country songs
 But I guess, yeah, there's something to go on
 So, where is the hope and
 Where is the faith and the love?
 What's that you say to me?
 Does love light up your Christmas tree?
 The next minute you're blowing a fuse
 And the Cartoon Network turns into the news
 If God will send His angels
 I sure could use them here right now
 Well, if God will send His angels
 And I don't have to know how (so, where do you go?)
 And I don't need to know why
 And I don't want to promise (so, where do you go?)
 'Cause I don't want to lie
 Just know that I need you (so, where do we go?)
 Tonight
 And I'm
 Souless soul there by your door
 Don't make a promise...
