When the Angels Sing

At last we meet again, dear God

Hear the angels sing

The funerals are nicer when we know you're there

When the angels sing

Sometimes

I try so hard

To understand

The things you do

I like to question you

When it all comes down

Hear the angels sing

Stand up strong

Feel the pain

When the angels sing

Love

And death

Don't mean a thing

Till the angels sing

The prisoners pray when they're on to death row

When the angels sing

The junky

Cries for love but it's all run out

When the angels sing

The sins

Of the world

And it's cold on the streets

And you're all alone

And the tears

They start to fall

When it all comes down

Hear the angels sing

Stand up strong

Feel the pain

When the angels sing

Love

And death

Don't mean a thing

Till the angels sing

Little

By little

Day by day

I watch the children play

Cause life

And death

Don't mean a thing

Till the angels sing

When the angel of death comes to looking for me

Hear the angels sing

I hope I was everything I was supposed to be

When the angels sing

There's gotta be a heaven

Cause I've already done

My time in hell

And a little

Baby's born when it all comes down

Hear the angels sing

Stand up strong

Feel the pain

When the angels sing

Love

And death

Don't mean a thing

Till the angels sing

Little

By little

Day by day

I watch the children play

Cause life

And death

Don't mean a thing

Till the angels sing
