Drunken Angel Lyrics - Thea Gilmore

Winter tells its truth to anyone who'll listen 

It will whisper to you slowly when the light is low 

And I will sit and wonder over everything I've written 

And still not know 

The smell of pine and nursery rhymes is rising 

There are some things that are broken and some things to hold tight 

To the few brave birds of the season who are sky writing 

Shine your light 

'Cause there's a drunken angel 

Dances to my heart 

Singin' lonely days 

Brand new start 

Brand new start 

And now is the time I will raise my eyes and be honest 

And look out across the plane of another tired and reckless year 

And give thanks for the love and the wonder that was hurled upon us 

And you, my dear 

And a drunken angel 

Dances to my heart 

Singin' lonely days 

Brand new start 

Brand new start 

You can hear the howl of wings, you can feel it when the wine is flowing 

And the tired and the lonely lay down their weary heads 

And baby, sometimes the beauty in this world comes from just not knowing 

Feeling instead 

Feeling instead 

Feeling instead
