Calling All Angels 
by Jane Siberry

A man is placed upon the steps, a baby cries
high above you can hear the church bells start to ring
and the heaviness the heaviness
settles in
somewhere you can hear a mother sing

then it's one foot then the other as you step out on
the road, you're still on that road
how much weight?
then it's how long? and how far?
and how many times.......oh before it's too late?

	calling all angels
	calling all angels
	walk me through this one
	don't leave me alone calling all angels calling all angels we're cryin' and we're hurtin' but we're not sure why...

and every day you gaze upon the sunset
with such love and intensity
it's almost as if...ah
if you could only crack the code
then you'd finally understand what this all means

ah but if you could...do you think you would
trade in all...all the pain and suffering?
ah, but then you would have missed
the beauty of the light upon this earth
and the sweetness of the leaving

	calling all angels
	calling all angels
	walk me through this one
	don't leave me alone
	callin' all angels
	callin' all angels
	we're tryin'
	we're hopin'
	but we're not sure how.......
	calling all angels
	calling all angels
	walk me through this one
	don't leave me alone
	callin' all angels
	callin' all angels
	we're tryin' we're hopin' we're lovin' and we're hurtin' we're cryin' we're callin' cause we're not sure how this goes
