Falling Angel

(Rene Frank)

 

Strophe 1 :

Standing at my window, falling leaves in the air,

looking at some people, on the streets everywhere.

The world seems to be funny, but then my look comes closer.

 

Strophe 2 :

On the rotten park-bank, an old man sits for a long time,

no one there to talk to, his friend is a bottle of wine.

Does he have no dwelling, brother, sister or child ?

 

Refrain :

Every night in my sweet dreams appears a glamorous angel,

lying right beside me, holds me warm and tight.

And I wanna stay in this lovely moment forever,

but the next day arises and I open my eyes.

 

Strophe 3 :

Right next to the church-yard, covered with a big tree,

a boy hits his girl-friend, who tries to break herself free.

Her eyes are filled with hot tears, implored, the girl looks at me.

 

Refrain :

Every night in my sweet dreams appears a glamorous angel,

lying right beside me, holds me warm and tight.

And I wanna stay in this lovely moment forever,

but the next day arises and I open my eyes.

 

Strophe 4 :

On the dusty pavement, in the thick of the crowd,

someone draws a pistol, aims at a father and shouts :

Give me all your money, or I´ll kill you without doubt.

 

Solo

 

Bridge :

Opening the window, cold fresh air in the face,

looking back at my life, to find out there´s no grace.

I spread the arms like an angel and fall with the leaves -

down to another place.

 

Refrain 1

Refrain 2 :

Every night in my sweet dreams appears a glamorous angel,

lying right beside me, holds me warm and tight.

And I wanna stay in this lovely moment forever,

but my sweet old dream fades, and I´ve lost my last fight.
