Calling All Angels

[derby378]

A song by Elyza Gilkyson from her Pilgrims CD that managed to stick in my head for about 15 years or so:

Calling all angels
Put down your disguise
Unveil your hearts
Wipe the sleep from your eyes
We are falling
Lost in the garden

Calling all angels
This is Starseed Command
We misused our free will
And messed up the plan
We are falling
Lost in the garden

Falling like gold leaves in autumn
Falling with hardly a sound
Sorrow and sickness are upon us
And the darkness is pulling us down

Calling all angels
We're sad and alone
We wandered too far
Now its time to come home
We are falling
Lost in the garden

Separation has bonded me with gravity
Hesitation has robbed me of my throne
Liberation is my soul's sweetest destiny
My heart wants to fly away home
I want to play through the ages
Make the changes
Like the angels

Calling all angels
If you're out on patrol
We're armed and we're dangerous
Spinning out of control
We are falling
Lost in the gardens
Lost in the heavens

Calling all angels...

2. hey, is that the song the women were singing

on Six Feet Under this past Sunday?

3. That's good. But I thought of the Jane Siberry song with the same name.

Santa Maria, Santa Teresa, Santa Anna, Santa Susannah
Santa Cecilia, Santa Copelia, Santa Domenica, Mary Angelica
Frater Achad, Frater Pietro, Julianus, Petronilla
Santa, Santos, Miroslaw, Vladimir
and all the rest

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

then it's one foot then the other as you step out onto the road
how much weight? how much weight?
then it's how long? and how far?
and how many times 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'
and we're not sure why...

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

but if you could...do you think you would
trade in all the pain and suffering?
ah, but then you'd miss
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'
we're hurtin'
we're lovin'
we're cryin'
we're callin'
'cause we're not sure how this goes
