Look Homeward Angel

(chuck cannon/allen shamblin)



You left us here, in a cloud of stardust

Disappeared, never even called us

And most of us, got over you

But baby as for me, i never quite recovered

Every night i dream about you

It's killing me to live without you

Baby do you ever dream of me



Look homeward angel

Your heart knows the way

Down a rearview mirror road that leads to yesterday

I'm leaving a light on

Won't you look homeward angel



Look homeward angel

Let me see those eyes of green

A lonely choir sings

Come and lay down in my arms and rest your weary wings

Before you're too far gone

Won't you look homeward angel



On nights like this, do you remember

Midnight kisses sweet and tender

And dancing under southern stars

Summer of '83, i never quite recovered

Oh, you played guitar and sang love songs to me

The memory still goes right through me

Angel ain't there one more song for me



Look homeward angel

Your heart knows the way

Down a rearview mirror road that leads to yesterday

I'm leaving a light on

Won't you look homeward angel



Look homeward angel

Let me see those eyes of green

A lonely choir sings

Come and lay down in my arms and rest your weary wings

Before you're too far gone

Won't you look homeward angel



Look homeward angel

Let me see those eyes of green

A lonely choir sings

Come and lay down in my arms and rest your weary wings

Before you're too far gone

Won't you look homeward angel



Oh, before you're too far gone

Won't you look homeward angel

Oh, look home, look homeward angel

Won't you look homeward angel

Look homeward angel, look home

Look home, look homeward angel
