Within Temptation Angels(CD single) Lyrics
1.Angels

Sparkling angel I believed
you were my saviour in my time of need.
Blinded by faith I couldn't hear
all the whispers, the warnings so clear.
I see the angels,
I'll lead them to your door.
There's no escape now,
no mercy no more.
No remorse cause I still remember
the smile when you tore me apart.

You took my heart,
deceived me right from the start.
You showed me dreams,
I wished they would turn into real.
You broke the promise and made me realise.
It was all just a lie.

Sparkling angel, I couldn't see
your dark intentions, your feelings for me.
Fallen angel, tell me why?
What is the reason, the thorn in your eye?

I see the angels,
I'll lead them to your door
There's no escape now
no mercy no more
No remorse cause I still remember
the smile when you tore me apart

You took my heart,
deceived me right from the start.
You showed me dreams,
I wished they would turn into real.
You broke the promise and made me realise.
It was all just a lie.
Could have been forever.
Now we have reached the end.

This world may have failed you,
it doesnt give you reason why.
You could have chosen a different path in life.

The smile when you tore me apart.

You took my heart,
deceived me right from the start.
You showed me dreams,
I wished they would turn into real.
You broke the promise and made me realise.
It was all just a lie.


2.Forsaken (Live in 013, Tilburg)

Now the day has come
We are forsaken this time

We lived our lives
In our paradise
As Gods we shaped the world around
No borderlines
We stayed behind
No boundaries is something fragile

Well we thought we were gaining
We turned back the time
It still slips away
We all have tried
To turn back the time
It was all in vain

Now the day has come
We are forsaken
There's no time any more

Life will pass us by
Life will pass us by
We are forsaken
We are forsaken
We're the last of our kind
Only rules stay below


The sacrifice
The sacrifice
Was much to hide
Was much to hide
Our grief just made us all go on
Our grief just made us all go on


We try to hide what we fear inside
We try to hide what we fear inside
Today is the end of tomorrow
Today is the end of tomorrow


As the sea started rise
As the sea started rise
And the land that we conquered
And the land that we conquered
It just washed away
It just washed away
We all have tried
We all have tried
To turn back the time
To turn back the time
It was all in vain
It was all in vain

Now the day has come
We are forsaken
There's no time any more

Life will pass us by
We are forsaken
Only rules stay below

Now the day has come
We are forsaken
this time


Now the day has come
We are forsaken
There's no time any more

Now the day has come,
The day has come


3.Say My Name

Say my name
So I will know
you're back you're here again
For a while
Oh let us share
The memories that only we can share
Together

Tell me about
The days before I was born
How we were as children

You touch my hand
These colors come alive
In your heart and in your mind
I cross the borders of time
Leaving today behind to be with you again

We breath the air
huh....
Do you remember
how you used to touch my hair?
You're not aware

Your hands keep still
You just don't know that I am here

It hurts too much

I pray now that soon you're released
To where you belong

You touch my hand
These colors come alive
In your heart and in your mind
I cross the borders of time
Leaving today behind to be with you again

Whoo...whoo...

Please say my name
Remember who i am
You will find me
in the world of yesterday
You drift away again
Too far from where I am
When you ask me who I am

Say my name
These colors come alive
In your heart and in your mind
I cross the borders of time
Leaving today behind to be with you again

Say my name


4.Angels (Live)

Sparkling angel
I believe
You are my saviour
In my time of need

Blinded by faith
I couldn't hear
All the whispers
They're warning so clear

I see the angels
I'll lead them to your door
There is no escape now
Now mercy no more

No remorse cause I still remember
The smile when you tore me apart

You took my heart
Deceived me right from the start
You showed me dreams
I wished they'd turn to real
You broke a promise
And made me realise
It was all just a lie

Sparkling angel
Couldn't see
Your dark intensions
Your feelings for me

Fallen angel
Tell me why
What is the reason?
The thorn in your eye

I see the angels
I'll lead them to your door
There is no escape now
No mercy no more

No remorse cause I still remember
The smile when you tore me apart

You took my heart
Deceived me right from the start
You showed me dreams
I wished they'd turn to real
You broke a promise
And made me realise
It was all just a lie

Could have been forever
Now we have reached the end


This world may have failed you
It doesn't give the reason why
You could have chosen
A different path of life

The smile when you tore me apart
You took my heart
Deceived me right from the start
You showed me dreams
I wished they'd turn in to real
You broke a promise
And made me realise
It was all just a lie

Could have been forever
Now we have reached the end


5.The Promise (Live02)

On behalf of her love
She no longer sleeps

Life had no longer meaning
Nothing to make her stay
She sold her soul away

I held you tight to me
You slipped away
You promised to return to me

And I believed, I believed

After the night he died
I wept my tears until they dried
But the pain stayed the same
I didn't want him to die all in vain

I made a promise
to revenge his soul in time
I'll make them bleed down at my feet

I held you tight to me
You slipped away
You promised to return to me

And I believed


Sometimes I wonder
Could I have known about
their true intentions?
As the pain stayed the same
I'm going to haunt them down all the way

I made a promise to revenge his soul in time
One by one they were surprised

I held you tight to me
You slipped away
You promised to return to me

And I believed

I held you tight to me
You slipped away
You promised to return to me
And I believed
