[Verse 1] She came through the rain With a torn white sleeve A scar on her hand And a silence that bleeds I saw her look down At the broken gate Then she touched my name Like a locked-up prayer [Pre-Chorus] Mm, the world held still Oo, the dark leaned back Aa, from her fingertips Came a silver track [Chorus] Oh angel, stay Oo, don’t fade away Mm, hold my fall Till the night goes pale Oh angel, stay Aa, call me back When my bones go weak And the cold comes fast [Verse 2] She crossed the yard Past the rusted swing Past the cracked stone steps And the sleeping things Her wings were folded Like a secret wound But the room got warm When she spoke my room [Pre-Chorus] Mm, the walls breathed out Oo, the floor came light Aa, she lifted the ache From the edge of my life [Chorus] Oh angel, stay Oo, don’t fade away Mm, hold my fall Till the night goes pale Oh angel, stay Aa, call me back When my bones go weak And the cold comes fast [Bridge] I asked her why She chose this place She said, “The lost Still need a face” Then the sky tore open Just enough to see A road of gold And a wave in me [Final Chorus] Oh angel, stay Oo, don’t fade away Mm, hold my fall Till the night goes pale Oh angel, stay Aa, call me back When my bones go weak And the cold comes fast [Outro] Oo Aa Mm Stay
