Angel In Blue (Remastered/2006)

We met in a bar

Out on Chesapeake Bay

With her white patent boots

And her blouse red lame

A table top dancer

She would smile on cue

Those lips of an angel

Angel in blue

She's been dancing for ages

Though cities of bars

She was kickin' the habit

of scoring in cars

She'd been drained of her spirit

All caged in this zoo

A wildcat angel

Angel in blue

And as she stared out into nowhere

I thought, yes, I thought she might break down and cry

When I whispered I thought I could love her

She just said "Baby, don't even bother to try"

And I watched as she spoke

Her words chilled my bones

All her friends did her favors

That were really just loans

And she never had dreams

So they never came true

The palest of angels

Angel in blue

And the bees they had stung her

The birds they had flown

There were guys she could number

But none she had known

And she never had dreams

So they never came true

My fade away angel

Angel in blue
