Calling All Angels Lyrics - Recollection 2 Cd Set - K. D. Lang

Santa Maria, Santa Teresa, Santa Anna, Santa Susannah 

Santa Cecilia, Santa Copelia, Santa Domenica, Mary Angelica 

Frater Achad, Frater Pietro, Julianus, Petronilla 

Santa, Santos, Miroslaw, Vladimir and all the rest 

A man is placed upon the steps, a baby cries 

And high above the church bells start to ring 

And as the heaviness the body, oh, the heaviness settles in 

Somewhere you can hear a mother sing 

Then it's one foot then the other 

As you step out onto the road 

How much weight? How much weight? 

Then it's how long? And how far? 

And how many times before it's too late? 

Calling all angels, calling all angels 

Walk me through this one, don't leave me alone 

Calling all angels, calling all angels 

We're cryin' and we're hurtin' 

And we're not sure why 

And every day you gaze upon the sunset 

With such love and intensity 

It's almost, it's almost as if 

If you could only crack the code 

Then you'd finally understand what this all means 

But if you could, do you think you would 

Trade in all the pain and suffering? 

Ah, but then you'd miss 

The beauty of the light upon this earth 

And the sweetness of the leaving 

Calling all angels, calling all angels 

Walk me through this one, don't leave me alone 

Calling all angels, calling all angels 

We're tryin', we're hopin' 

We're hurtin', we're lovin' 

We're cryin', we're callin' 

'Cause we're not sure how this goes
