Real Life (Angel)

ELBOW · The Take Off And Landing Of Everything 2014 · Track 05 of 10

Music: Craig Potter, Guy Garvey, Mark Potter, Pete Turner, Richard Jupp · Lyrics: Guy Garvey

If you wake in the quake and the roll of the heartbroken Pounding the ground in a sawn off ballet Bring us in an indigo dawn with the lovelorn and renegade You always found peace in the grip of a beat darling Time alone with the pounding of your heart As it starts to heal you'll find a better mirror in another

You I've never known dumbfounded So out of reach and hollowed through Blue and white the light and sound surrounding As the music pulls you through And on that hallelujah morning In the arms of new love The peace that you'll feel's Real life

Go straight to the place where you first lost your balance And find your feet with the people that you love and Bring us in an indigo dawn with the lovelorn and renegade You with the eyes ever met not forgotten Get hold of the night that rises in your blood Focus on your pulse Focus on your breath Know that we're never far away

You I've never known dumbfounded So out of reach and hollowed through Blue and white the light and sound surrounding As the music pulls you through And on that hallelujah morning In the arms of new love The peace that you'll feel's Real life

Angel Angel Angel Angel

You with the eyes ever met not forgotten You with the arms for the lonely whoever You with the laugh that could bring down a tenement Talking your way to the heart of the citadel Up on the tables or shouldering strangers Or under my arm as we add to the waterfall My little sister with brothers in common You never need fear a thing in this world While I have a breath in me blood in my veins You never need fear a thing in this world While I have a breath in me blood in my veins You never need fear a thing in this blue world

You I've never known dumbfounded So out of reach and hollowed through Blue and white the light and sound surrounding As the music pulls you through And on that hallelujah morning In the arms of new love The peace that you'll feel's Real life
