Fallen angel ripped and bruised
Think on better days
Life is rude, treats you bad
Tears your wings awayRaise your eyes to star and sky
Believe in fly aways
Take your dreams, your broken schemes
And sweep the past awayFly lonely angel
High above these streets of fire
Fly lonely angel
Far away from mad desireHollywood ain't paved with gold
It's just a trick of light
Sunset falls on stars of old
And blinds you with its lightA spider's web of tangled lives
Lays stretched across the hills
From distances it's glistening
Like El Dorado's hallsFly lonely angel
High above these streets of fire
Fly lonely angel
Leave behind the mad desireThe dream was light and fragrant nights
But how were you to know
The streets are hard, they're mean and scared
Where only fools find goldFly lonely angel
High above these streets of fire
Fly lonely angel
Leave behind the mad desireFly lonely angel
Spread your wings another way
Fly lonely angel
Find a better way, a better day
