Older Angel Lyrics

Kate Campbell Older Angel

I don’t know who dug this hole we’re standing in
All I know is that it’s dark and deep
We’ve cried out to heaven and lifted up our hands
But I kind of got this feeling we ain’t getting nowhere
man

We need an older angel if we’re gonna make it through
One who’s been around this block we’re on a time or two
If he knows all the angles then we might have a prayer
We need an older angel tonight if we’re gonna get there

People make their choices I have heard it said
Maybe that’s the truth or maybe not
When you’re lying in this clover with a bullet in your
heart
Tell me what it really matters when the shooter finds the
mark

One who knows the score
Who’s walked through the doors of heaven
One who’s been around
One who’s fallen down and learned to fly again
