Angel In The Alleyways

Angel In The Alleyways

(There's angels all around)
(There's angels all around)
(There's angels all around)

Do you walk the streets at night
Try to stay beneath the light
Do you sense it as you go
Maybe you are not alone

An angel walks, an angel prays
Here by your side at night unseen in the alleyways

Who guides the hand that comes to play
Like BB King and Stevie Ray
Who takes the pain we didn't choose
Turns it into Chicago Blues

An angel walks, an angel prays
By your side at night down through the alleyways, oh-ho-hu

A junkie cries (yeah yeah) and no one hears (yeah yeah)
A spirit flies (yeah yeah) to dry his tears (yeah yeah)
The bottle owns (yeah yeah) another man (yeah yeah)
Until he takes (yeah yeah) the helping hand (yeah yeah)

A spirit walks, an angel prays
By your side at night unseen through the alleyways

Who knows the spirit who walks beside
To light and guard, to rule and guide
They walk with Peter, they walk with Paul
Wrestled with Jacob and with us all

An angel walks, an angel prays
By your side at night down through the alleyways

Now there's angels all around, I know, don't you
Angels all around, I know, don't you

Times when you can't find the word
It comes to you as if you heard
Someone's voice from long ago
Tells you what you need to know

An angel walks, oh prays
By your side at night, child, down in the alleyways

Well now there's angels all around, I know, don't you
There's angels all around, I know, don't you
(Angels all around)
(Angels all around)
(There's angels all around)
(There's angels all around)
(There's angels all around)
(There's angels all around)…
