David LaBrel - Angel City lyrics

The hills painted with houses Stream lights and cars It never gets dark enough to dream Of all the things I lay so heavy On my heart and on my mind And all the places I've been to in my life All I see are telephone poles and concrete walls Abbandoned buildings and broken hearts And all the things that make me wanna run But if I stand here long enough Will I become part of the rust Faded and worn away Will this Angel city become my grave And all the stars above the skyline I couldn't see them if I tried So I'll be better off trying to dream them tonight If I could just turn off the sirens And the helicopters overhead Just close my eyes and lay awake instead All I see are telephone poles and concrete walls Abbandoned buildings and broken hearts And all the things that make me wanna run But if I stand here long enough Will I become part of the rust Faded and worn away Will this Angel city become my grave And I'll watch it all fall down some day The long [?] Hanging around Just strong enough to breathe And go away Now I see the fall growing in And the sun going down And the traffic piling up at the edge of the town And all the things that make me wanna run But if I stand here long enough Will I become part of the rust Faded and worn away Will this Angel city become my grave Will this Angel city become my grave Will this Angel city become my grave Will this Angel city become my grave
