Maybe An Angel

Heather Nova Maybe An Angel Lyrics
1.Maybe An Angel

I put my hands where your wings should be,
I put my feet where the earth should be
And I can't see very far
And when you said that you were dead I hung on

Something I feel
You are an angel, or maybe you could've been
Something out here
You are an angel or maybe you could've been.

I've got this light hangs over me
I've got this fear cuts into me
And I can't see very far
And when you said that you were dead I hung on

Something I feel
You are an angel, or maybe you could've been
Something out here
You are an angel or maybe you could've been

See how they run
And nobody said you would go
See how they fall
And I can't see very far
And when you said you were dead I hung on

Something I feel
You are an angel, or maybe you could've been
Something out here
You are an angel or maybe you could've been
See how they run
See how they run
All the same, all the same
Something out here
You are an angel.


2.Throwing Fire At The Sun(Live)

I think of Venus
Sinking down into the sea
And what it is
To be alone and have nothing

I don't know why you
Want to leave this space between
Is it easier
To be alone and have nothing

You and me and everyone
Throwing fire at the sun

I put my hands up
Lay my weapons down
I know that I was stupid
I was wrong

You and me and everyone
Throwing fire at the sun

If I listen
There's something deeper that speaks
If we reach out
Maybe we could make a little peace

You and me and everyone
Throwing fire at the sun

Remember stealing
Oranges and how they bled
And you're the one who
Showed me how to touch myself

You and me and everyone
Throwing fire at the sun

Blood is a river, ties you to me
Blood is a river, ties everyone
Blood is a river, ties you to me
Blood is a river, ties everyone

Ties everyone
Ties everyone


3.Talking To Strangers(Live)

I'm talking to strangers
To see what I feel;
Your face is changing now
And nothing seems real.
These things I know
Are like a baby how they grow in me;
I pull them out
Just like a baby for you to see them all

I'm talking to strangers
To see what I need;
This love between us now,
How it's twisting in me.
I want to get it out,
I want to feel the breathing,
I want to really love,
I want to know the meaning,
I want to share all these things.

These things I know
Are like a baby how they grow in me
I pull them out
Just like a baby for you to see them all


4.Verona(Live)

It gets inside you like the sun,
it makes you wet just like the rain
It makes you sound so sentimental,
it's a lovely kind of pain.

I used to dream,
I used to dream about Verona.
I used to dream, dream,
I used to dream about Verona.

And if there ever was an earthquake,
I'd go down in the earth with you.
And if there ever was an avalanche,
I'd landslide down with you.

I used to dream,
I used to dream about Verona.
I used to dream.
I used to lean over the side of the boat
and get hypnotized by the water and dream.

It's up in the trees it's up to me.
It's out of the blue, out to you.

I used to dream,
I used to dream about Verona.

Yeah Romeo you are priceless, lifeless,
skipping star to scar to star.
I used to dream you'd be slipping, slipping from me.
Burning, breathing, breathing, sleeping, in me.
I used to lean over the side of the boat
and get hypnotized by the water and dream.
Slipping, slipping, slipping,
slipping from me.
Burning, burning, breathing,
sleeping in me.


5.Truth And Bone(Live)

Sometimes I can feel you breathing into me.
And these hands I can feel them tugging at my sleeve,
I move through the day in the rhythm that I've known.
I've got this crazy dream of stripping down to truth and bone.

All of it, all of it, all of it stripped down.
All of it, all of it, all of it, to truth and bone.

My mouth is full of secrets I'm too afraid to tell.
My body's full of longing for you to know me well.
I move through the day in the rhythms that I've known.
I've got this crazy dream of stripping down to truth and bone.

All of it, all of it, all of it stripped down.
All of it, all of it, all of it, to truth and bone.

I think of sinking in way over my shoulders, let the water, the
water take me in and I need you to cut through to where I'm
hidden, I'm awkward and I'm too polite and I want two stars for
arms like orion I could breathe in and breathe in and breathe
out.
If I could only lose myself
I would lose myself in you,
I move trough the day in the rhythms that I've known.
I've got this crazy dream of stripping down to truth and bone.

All of it, all of it, all of it stripped down.
All of it, all of it, all of it, to truth and bone.


6.My Fidelity(Live)

Is it something ritual
I'm caught in, can't break the spell?
Is it moving in my body
Is it biological?
I gotta hand it to you
You've got one heart ten times divided.
Did you cut yourself in pieces
To get them all inside?

You dream about her, can't you see?
She's only shining bright
'cause she's so out of reach.
You dream about the seven seas
While I'm staying home each night,
Making love to my fidelity.

I'm rocking in my bed
I can't talk can't think can't sleep.
And nothing's jumping fences,
I only count what I cannot keep.
I lick my wounds,
I chase my instinct like a cat.
I don't know how I got so good
Or why my heart's a trap.

Why I love you, why I love you
Why I love you I don't know,
Why I love you, why I love you, why.
Taking sides with my enemy
Making love to my fidelity.

I'm landlocked, stuck in here,
I don't want to take my freedom.
I can't change what makes me high
And I can't change what I believe in.
I'm not pleasing no guru,
I'm not out to look for Jesus.
I'm not afraid to break the rules
It's just, one love keeps me breathing.

Why I love you, why I love you
Why I love you, I don't knok
Why I love you, why I love you, why.
Taking sides with my enemy
Making love to my fidelity


7.Maybe An Angel(Live)

I put my hands where your wings should be,
I put my feet where the earth should be
And I can't see very far
And when you said that you were dead I hung on

Something I feel
You are an angel, or maybe you could've been
Something out here
You are an angel or maybe you could've been.

I've got this light hangs over me
I've got this fear cuts into me
And I can't see very far
And when you said that you were dead I hung on

Something I feel
You are an angel, or maybe you could've been
Something out here
You are an angel or maybe you could've been

See how they run
And nobody said you would go
See how they fall
And I can't see very far
And when you said you were dead I hung on

Something I feel
You are an angel, or maybe you could've been
Something out here
You are an angel or maybe you could've been
See how they run
See how they run
All the same, all the same
Something out here
You are an angel.
