Angel Of Harlem lyrics

It was a cold and
wet December day
when we touched
the ground at JFK

Snow was melting
on the ground
On BLS I heard
the sound
of an angel

New York,
like a Christmas tree
Tonight this city
belongs to me
Angel

Soul love...
This love won't
let me go

So long..
Angel of Harlem

Birdland on
fifty-three

The street sounds
like a symphony
We got John Coltrane
and a love supreme

Miles says she's
got to be an angel

Lady Day got
diamond eyes
She sees the truth
behind the lies
Angel

Soul love...
This love won't
let me go

So long...
Angel of Harlem

Angel of Harlem

Ooh.. ooh..
She sings with
heart... and soul...

Yeah yeah
Yeah
Yeah yeah
Right now

Blue light
on the avenue

God knows they
got to you

An empty glass,
the lady sings

Eyes swollen like
a bee sting

Blinded you lost
your way

Through the side
streets and
the alleyway

Like a star exploding
in the night

Falling to the city
in broad daylight

An angel in
Devil's shoes
Salvation in
the blues

You never looked
like an angel

Yeah yeah
Angel of Harlem

Angel...
Angel of Harlem

Angel...
Angel of Harlem
