Generate meaning
1
He searched for those wings that he knew
2
that this angel should have at her back
3
And although he can't find them
4
he really don't mind
5
because he knows they'll grow back
6
And he reached for that halo that he knows
7
that she had when she first caught his eye
8
Although his hand came back empty
9
he's really not worried
10
'cause he knows it still shines
11
I can't promise that I'll grow those wings
12
or keep this tarnished halo shined
13
but I'll never betray your trust
14
angel mine
15
I search all the time on the ground
16
for our shadows cast side by side
17
Just to remind me that I haven't gone crazy
18
that you exist and are mine
19
And I know that your skin is as warm and as real
20
as that smile in your eyes
21
But I have to keep touching and smelling
22
and tasting for fear it's all lies
23
I can't promise that I'll grow those wings
24
or keep this tarnished halo shined
25
but I'll never betray your trust
26
angel mine
27
Last night I awoke from the deepest of sleeps
28
with your voice in my head
29
And I could tell by your breathing
30
that you were still sleeping
31
I repeated those words that you had said
32
I can't promise that I'll grow those wings
33
or keep this tarnished halo shined
34
but I'll never betray your trust
35
