Lyrics
From this cloud where I hang dangle in the blue I spy you all tiny creatures on the ground below For my being reckless got me strung up in the sky But love is flawed now see the lawless cry Cut my cord now better then better off to die Here am I your falling angel dangle in the blue I'm your angel and I wish that I could be like you It's my time all I have for my crime is such Knowing that the thing I love is that which I can't touch So I watch your fragile beauty changing in the sun Love is flawed now see the lawless cry Cut my cord now better then better off to die Well here am I your falling angel dangle in the blue I'm your angel how I wish that I could be with you Falling angel dangle in the blue I'm your angel and I wish that I could be like you I believe in you I don't believe it all but I believe in you I don't believe it all but I belive in you I don't believe it all but I believe in you I don't believe it all Jack's got a plan Gonna put it to the test Thanks to the man Who decides he knows best
