Kelly Pardekooper Tiny Angel lyrics

You won't tell me when we're going, you won't tell me when we're there And you never stop to take a breath, Lord knows it's only air You go down sweet Virginia into that darkness that I know That's why we're always together when they shoo us out the door Of some bar where we'll find shelter from those stars there as they blink With the sidewalk rolling round and round as we walk up to the brink Of that trouble you know it's coming ‘cause this town knows that's in store And if I had an ounce of sense I suppose I'd walk right out the door But I watch her as she stumbles through the headlights and the glass And I see a tiny angel that used to pray with me at Mass Didn't know then that she'd be running from the hard light of the sun That she'd never find the comfort of those mornings when we were young So go on down now sweet Virginia with your silly drunken stare I'll be here come closing time, you know I'm always there To try and round up all those pieces maybe keep them in one place Hold you through those nightmares and the changes on your face But I'm always gone come morning when you're lying on the mend ‘Cause you'll be up come sundown to do it all again
