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.
