John Butler Trio Seeing Angels Lyrics

Seeing Angels Lyrics

Why do I deserve such a visit 

From the one I thought I'd never meet. 

Beyond my greatest expectations. 

You exceeded everything. 

Well here I am 



Take me for what you see 

For I'm transparent in the light of you. 

And look inside, 

See that fire burning bright 

The same one you rekindled inside me 



My mouth was dry 

only you quenched my thirst 

I thought I was last 

You told me I was first. 



And I thought I was seeing Angels 

And now I know I was. 

your wings around me 

Feel good they always does . 



So there I was 

Ain't the same man I used to be 

But do you still like what you in me. 

For I am frightened 

Shed so much I clung onto 

The only thing I got left is this guitar and you. 



Nowhere to run 

Been out here too long 

Under the sun. 

Am I too afraid 

To get some. 

To afraid to give myself some shade 

I hope and pray I do some day.
