John Butler Trio Seeing Angels lyrics

Why do I deserve such a visit
From the one I thought I'd never meet?
Beyond my greatest expectations
You exceeded everything, well, here I am

Take me for what you see
For I'm transparent in the light of you
And look inside, see that fire burning bright
The same one you rekindled inside me

My mouth was dry, only you quenched my thirst
I thought I was last, you told me I was first
And I thought I was seeing Angels, and now I know I was
Your wings around me, feel good they always does


So there I was, ain't the same man I used to be
But do you still like what you in me
For I am frightened, shed so much I clung onto
The only thing I got left is this guitar and you

Nowhere to run, been out here too long
Under the sun, am I too afraid to get some?
Too afraid to give myself some shade
I hope and pray I do some day
