| And an angel came unto me And inhabited the body of my child |
| And for a moment she could speak to me She was radiant and calm |
| Though her eyes were slightly wild |
| She could surely see things that we can’t see |
| Angel of mercy |
| Angel of dreams |
| Nothing’s ever quite what it seems |
| She said I bring to you this message |
| A little glimpse of passage |
| While you lay your head down, down to rest |
| And this love that you follow |
| It will never grow hollow |
| It is the one true flame to fuel your quest |
| Angel of mercy |
| Angel of dreams |
| Nothing’s ever quite what it seems |
| There are no guarantees Aaah … |
| That wisdom will come and find you Aaah … |
| It is written on no stone that you will be so blessed Aaah … |
| But I hear they are pleased somewhere Aaah … |
| With your weavings of harp and drum and bell Aaah … |
| And the truth we find between your pages pressed Aaah … |
| To carry on for another voice to tell Aaah … Yeah |
| Angel of mercy |
| Angel of dreams |
| Nothing’s ever quite what it seems |
| Not quite what it seems Nothing’s ever quite |
| Not quite what it seems Nothing’s ever quite |
| Not quite what it seems Nothing’s ever quite |
