  • There's an angel on a ribbon

  • Hanging from the armoire door

  • There's a Cupid with his feet crossed

  • On the bird cage by the door

  • There's a baby angel drummer

  • His eyes are open wide

  • And two more tiny cherubs

  • On the mantle side by side

  • Too many angels

  • Have seen me crying

  • Too many angels

  • Have heard you lying

  • There are photographs of children

  • All in their silver frames

  • On the window sills and tabletops

  • Lit by candle flames

  • And upon their angel faces

  • Life's expectations climb

  • Where the moment has preserved them

  • From the ravages of time

  • Too many angels

  • Have seen me crying

  • Too many angels

  • Have heard you lying

  • Bring the morning on

  • I want to step out in the morning sun

  • I want this darkness gone

  • These apparitions coming one by one

  • But there's no end in sight

  • Only the dead of night

  • And too many angels

  • Too many angels

  • Have seen me crying

  • Too many angels

  • Voices sing of day

  • Through the flood of tears

  • Your sweet face appears

  • But there's no end in sight

  • Only the dead of night

  • And too many angels

  • == Jackson Browne - Too Many Angels ==
