Cell to Call Home

Angel lands herself Behind locked doors Tucked out of sight Where she'll never again fight Severed from the bonds That keep us straight Stayed out too late She accepted a harsh fate But that's the way of the world For such a troubled young pearl And she'll never stop being my girl Maybe my angel's in peace at last (at last) Maybe she's feeling okay (she's okay she's okay) And I miss her dearly Now I'm all by myself But I'd just as soon Ask her to stay She's got a cell to call home Sunrise leaves A challenge resting in her place Without her grace And a sensitive embrace Death would be a welcome From this coldest air I'll meet her there As eternity we share But that's the way of the world For every pitiful fool Who endangers himself for love Maybe my angel's in peace at last (at last) Maybe she's feeling okay (she's okay she's okay) But I miss her dearly Now I'm all by myself And I'd just as soon Ask her to stay She's got a cell to call She's got a cell to call She's got a cell to call She's got a cell to call home You had your words And I had my promises to keep No thought unheard No stinging phrase could we unspeak Now all I've left of you is a photograph A box of useless things And a burning urge to purge what's left Of my forgotten soul If you'll never speak again of me Frail I'm so frail Dreamed an angel found me in my early grave She knelt and prayed That my body would be raised Waking up as pale as early winter dawn She sent me on To find an ending to our song Helping my angel find peace at last Gives me a reason to stay And I miss her dearly now But I'm not alone And I'll pick up the pieces someday (She's got a cell to call home) Helping my angel find peace at last (at last) Gives me a reason to stay (she's okay she's okay) And I miss her dearly now But I'm not alone And I'll pick up the pieces someday She's got a cell to call She's got a cell to call She's got a cell to call She's got a cell to call She's got a cell to call She's got a cell to call She's got a cell to call She's got a cell to call She's got a cell to call She's got a cell to call She's got a cell to call She's got a cell to call home
