Tin Angel Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Varnished weeds in window jars

Tarnished beads on tapestries

Kept in satin boxes are

Reflections of love's memories



[Verse 2]

Letters from across the seas

Roses dipped in sealing wax

Valentines and maple leaves

Tucked into a paperback



[Chorus 1]

Guess I'll throw them all away

I found someone to love today



[Verse 3]

Dark with darker moods is he

Not a golden prince who's come

Through columbines and wizardry

To talk of castles in the sun



[Chorus 2]

Still I'll take a chance and see

I found someone to love today



[Verse 4]

There's a sorrow in his eyes

Like the angel made of tin

What will happen if she tries

To place another heart in him



[Chorus 3]

In a Bleecker Street café

She found someone to love today

She found someone to love today
