Al Stewart - Angel of Mercy lyrics

Every evening You come around here in your cloak of lies Half-believing I sit and listen as you offer up the prize Pick up your smile Just go faithless friend There is no pleasure waiting here for you Pick up your smile Just go faithless friend I don't see you any more as an angel of mercy Imitations Of the good life were your stock in trade Pale imitations You run for cover when the promise starts to fade Pick up your smile Just go faithless friend There is no treasure waiting here for you Pick up your smile Just go faithless friend I don't see you any more as an angel of mercy You play the game well You've got the knack Your hand in the till And the knife in the back Head for the hills Leaving them flat How come you treat Everybody like that? Spaced invader Of my privacy be on your way Tricky trader In webs of fantasy, the bank is closed today Pick up your smile Just go faithless friend There is no pleasure waiting here for you Pick up your smile Just go faithless friend I don't see you any more as an angel of mercy Pick up your smile Just go faithless friend There is no treasure waiting here for you Pick up your smile Just go faithless friend I don't see you any more As an angel of mercy Oh, an angel of mercy Oh, an angel of mercy
