We were sitting in an empty room
The moonlight was falling
You were holding my hand
When the car pulled up for you
And I could have spent a life with you
But those days were over
You were calling my name when your face faded from view
And wasn't it you who told me
The sun would always chase the day
And wasn't it you who told me
Angels fly
In the air tonight
Saying
Wasn't it just like swimming out on the lake
And stars collide
In the airs alive
And was it just like those promises that you made
On our last night
I remember waking up with you
Days doing nothing
You meant more to me then than I think you ever knew
You were gonna be a doctor, a movie star, a poet at Noble seminar
I hope the world never tore that out of you
'Cause wasn't it you who told me
The sun would always chase the day
And wasn't it you who told me
Angels fly
In the air tonight
Saying
Wasn't it just like swimming out on the lake
And stars collide
In the airs alive
And was it just like those promises that you made
And what ever happened to the things you loved
And the songs we played in the Indian days
Whatever happened to the things you gave away
Like Harold and Maude singing
Like Harold and Maude singing
I was waiting as you drove away
The sunlight was falling
You were riding backwards in the dusty window pane
Angels fly
In the air tonight
Saying
Wasn't it just like swimming out on the lake
And stars collide
In the airs alive
And was it just like those promises that you made
On our last night
On our last night
On our last night......
