[Intro: Dramatic Juno-60 synth pads] [Sparkly DX7 bells arpeggio] [Drum Entry: Heavy Simmons heartbeat kick... pause... kick] (Verse 1) [Soft breathy vocals] The city sleeps beneath a shroud of grey and blue I’m walking down the streets I shared with you The neon lights are fading in the morning rain And every step I take just brings back all the pain (Verse 2) [Husky raspy voice] I remember how we danced inside the golden haze Lost within the magic of those summer days You were the fire, I was just a lonely spark Now I’m searching for your shadow in the dark [Pre-Chorus: Rising synth tension] [Single loud Simmons tom hit] [Chorus] [Powerful emotional delivery] Oh, Angel (Angel...) Angel of the morning (My morning...) Don’t leave me here to face the night alone My heart is like a temple made of stone (High falsetto backing: "Oh-oh-oh, Angel...") (Verse 3) The letters that I wrote are lying on the floor I’m waiting for your knock upon my heavy door But silence is the only sound that I can hear A lonely hunter chasing every fallen tear (Verse 4) I’d give the world to hold you for a single breath To save our dying love from such a lonely death The clock is ticking on the mantelpiece of time I’m paying for the mountain that I couldn’t climb [Bridge: Emotional Electric Guitar Solo - Soaring and Long] [Slow rhythmic Simmons drum fills] (Verse 5) They say that time can heal a broken, bleeding soul But without you, baby, I will never be whole I see your face in every stranger passing by Underneath the cold and empty winter sky (Verse 6) I’ll build a bridge across the ocean of my fears To reach the place where you have dried away your tears No matter where you are, no matter what they say I’ll find a path to bring you back to me today (Verse 7) [Max emotion and rasp] So let the lightning strike and let the thunder roll You’re the only one who ever touched my soul The sun is rising, but the world is feeling cold Until the day I have your hand for me to hold [Final Chorus] Oh, Angel (Angel...) Angel of the morning (My morning...) Don’t leave me here to face the night alone My heart is like a temple made of stone [Outro: Final Melodic Guitar Solo] [Fade out with sound of falling rain] [Final slow Simmons drum hit]
