Lyric 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
