Begging round the sun beaten streets I can't make me no connections Locals here no speak no English Where is my woman, well no one knows Ah well, some girls just have to leave in the night While you're fast asleep But I don't worry, I move in the dark There were lights, there were border lights I thought I heard that drum in the distance playing I saw the light, I crossed my heart and beat angels were there. I woke in some hotel room I could hardly remember my name They were only sixteen years old I felt so lonely, I felt so ashamed.
I know sometimes I just have to leave In the night, while you're fast asleep But I don't worry, I move in the dark There were lights, there were border lights I thought I heard that drum in the distance playing I turned around, I crossed my heart and beat angels were there. Don't you wonder where one goes wrong Is it somewhere in a foreign rain? We're sitting out the storm Every lamplight in town Man don't know when he's got it his grace Till beat angels come and take her away, beat angels, beat angels
