Angel Land Lyrics


I cannot be superman no more...
I cannot walk upon the high wire in my mind.
And now that I understand the extent of my mortal coil,
Suddenly and somehow I have lost all my desire...
To shine, to shine like the sun...
To shine, to shine like the sun...
On a sunny day in Angel-Land.
And I guess sometimes you find that the river just runs dry...
And you've got to get up out of the boat and walk.
And I suppose you might try to find another river,
But sometimes, sometimes it's just too hard..
To hard to shine, to shine like the sun...
To shine, to shine like the sun...
On a sunny day, in Angel-Land.
Mostly now these days I'm dreaming normal dreams...
Little things like who I spoke to, or what I did today.

I have not written a speech for God to say in years.
'Scuse me if I leave that undertaking up to those who say...
Who say the want to shine, to shine like the sun...
To shine, a shine like the sun..
On a sunny day, in Angel-Land..
Sweet Angel-land

Jim White is a southern gothic alt-country singer-songwriter. He has released four albums as a solo artist.

While his music is based in americana, he borrows elements from rock, rhythm and blues, and even electronica, often piecing sounds together in the lo-fi cut-and-paste fashion of artists like Tom Waits. His albums have featured a wide variety of collaborators, such as Victoria Williams, Morcheeba, Aimee Mann, Barenaked Ladies, and Joe Henry. He is signed to David Byrne's Luaka Bop label and appeared in the BBC documentary, Searching for the Wrong-Eyed Jesus, which looks at musicians inspired by the culture of the American South.

Not be confused with the acclaimed Dirty Three / Cat Power / Smog / P. J. Harvey / Nina Nastasia drummer, who also had a recent collaboration album "You Follow Me" with Nastasia under the name of Nina Nastasia And Jim White
