From the recording Shine The Light On
Lyrics
Angel Place That Halo
I ain't been one
For prayin’ none
but I'm down on my knees and trying
I aint never been, a church going man
but here I am at the alter, crying
and it's a long way down
I'm just trying to climb out
the road behinds been nothing but sin and crime
and I cant say that I like what I've been doing
hope the road ahead got something
better than all this misery and pain I've been living
cause it's a long way down
and I'm just trying to climb out
angel oh angel, place that halo
place that halo on my head
no I don’t deserve it, but I swear I'll earn it if you
just light the darkness I so dread
lord ain't never seen, me down on my knees
but lately its the only place I been
he ain't never known me to bow at his throne
but I still hope he can forgive
cause it's a long way down
and I'm just trying to climb out
the road behinds been nothing but sin and crime
and I cant say that I like what I've been doing
hope the road ahead got something
better than all this misery and pain I've been living
cause it's a long way down
and I'm still trying to climb out
angel oh angel, place that halo, place that halo on my head
no I don't deserve it, but I swear I'll earn it
if you light the darkness on this old trail
angel oh angel, place that halo
place that halo on my head
no I don’t deserve it, but I swear I'll earn it if you
just light the darkness I so dread
if you'll just light the darkness I so dread
if you'll just light the darkness I so dread
