Natalie Merchant - City Of Angels lyrics

[Verse 1:] Heaven, is this heaven where we are? See them walking, if you dare If you call that walking Stumble, stagger, fall and drag themselves Along the streets of heaven Where is the blessed table To feed all who hunger on earth Welcomed and seated each one joyfully served? See them walking, if you dare If you call that walking Stumble, stagger, fall and drag themselves Along the streets of heaven Where is the halo That should glow 'round your face And where are the wings that Should grow from your shoulder blades? [Chorus:] These sobering sights i've seen In the city of angels Have all been one rude awakening That was due to me in heaven [Verse 2:] There would have been heavenly music I was convinced before And a host of the dearly to meet me With hosannas sung at the door [Chorus:] But these sobering sights i've seen In the city of angels Have all been one rude awakening That was due to me In this city of fallen angels
