John Wesley Harding - The Secret Angel lyrics

The secret angel fell from grace

Condemned to wear a human face

Evicted from her paradise

Excommunicated twice

Settled for second best

And so she found me

Don't ask the nature of her crime

Don't ask her why she's serving time

Don't ask this girl why she can't cry

Don't ask her questions that start "why"

I'm trying to help her start anew

To learn to walk when once she flew

Above the ups and downs

That floor and ground us

Into the dark, she was reborn

She says tonight will have no dawn

And all the light drains from her eyes

As she forgets to say goodbye

To one more memory

That tries to lift her high

She drafts new plans and draws designs

To find a way for her to fly

I hide them when her back is turned

The secret angel never learns

She just gets burned again

And falls eternally....
