Beat Angels Lyrics

Rickie Lee Jones

Beggin' down these sun beaten streets I can't make for no connection Locals here don't speak no English Where is my woman, no one knows
It seems some girls just have to leave in the night When you're fast asleep But I don't worry, I move in the dark There were lights, there were border lights
I thought I heard a drum in the distance play I saw the light, I crossed my heart and beat angels were there
I awoke in some hotel room Could hardly remember my name They were only sixteen years old I was so cold, I was so ashamed
If sometime I just have to leave In the night, when you're fast asleep Turn up your radio and I move in the dark There will be lights, there are border lights
Thought I heard a drum in the distance play I saw the lights Crossed my heart and beat angels were there
You might wonder where one goes wrong It was somewhere in a foreign rain that sent him out to stone Every lamplight in town Man don't know what he's got it his veins
Until beat angels come, take him away Play on beat angels
