When the Angels Played - Calexico

You were looking for silver, looking for gold

You never did feel the wind turning cold

You always said you didn’t need that much anymore

You were carrying the weight of the world

Running around with all that pain

So you never did feel my hand in the rain

You were dreaming deep down in the night

Dreaming all of your days

You never did wake when the angels played

There was fire in the tunnel fire in the wash

And the ringing of the bells

You never did wake when the angels played

Maybe you’ll find your silver

Maybe you’ll find your gold

Maybe we’ll meet again on the road sometime

Storm in December storm in July

I was standing in the door

When you said goodbye

You never did wake when the angels played

There was fire in the tunnel

Fire in the wash

And the ringing of the bells

You never did wake when the angels played

Well maybe you’ll find your silver

Maybe you’ll find your gold

Maybe we’ll meet somewhere down the road

Storm in December storm in July

I was standing in the door

When you said goodbye

You never did wake when the angels played
