lyrics

Angel
©1998 Alice Bierhorst/BMI

Tell me true
Can I believe my eyes
Can I believe in you
Do you feel
My touch the same
When I call your name

And if you stray
I'll send my heart
Send it out right away
To show you the way
Back home again
It's just around the bend

CHORUS
And now we walk closer to the angels
And now we walk closer to the warmth of the sun
And now we walk closer to the angels
Now we walk closer to the sun

Enchanted hour
We have a lifetime
To dance away
The sweetest song
It's not from above
It's right where we are

And if I stray
Will you send your heart
Send it out right away
To show me the way
Back home again
It's just around the bend

CHORUS

We walk closer
We walk closer
We walk closer
To the warmth of the sun

We walk closer
We walk closer
We walk closer
To the warmth of the sun

The warmth of the sun
The warmth of the sun
The warmth of the sun
The warmth of the sun

Angel Numbers: 333
by David Heatley

David Heatley's music is high energy popart that rocks: funny, soulful, weird, sexy, a little They Might Be Giants, a little Green Day, a whole lotta wonderful and I play drums for him! Thanks, David. Alice Bierhorst

love hello
by Matt Kanelos

Matt Kanelos is a restless soulful veering from thoughtful pop to pure weird. This album is like a travelogue through his mind, the highlight being the odyssey-like "The Brink" & wistful "Wonderland". Alice Bierhorst

CANDY TEARS
by Pete Galub

Pete Galub is my idea of a perfect songwriter - great hooks, killer lyrics, off-kilter but honest whether he's body-slamming you with a huge wall of rock or curling into your ear with yearning. Alice Bierhorst
