Across the bridge of mercy bound,
rooms so full of Say You Will
and trains that rock like cradles in the air.
I`ll stay here and hold your hand.
Love likes fools you understand.
It`s part of what this life has brought;
sirens and forget-me-nots.

Either way it`s no use now.
He`s up there and I`m down here.
I will try to make the best of this.
Someday angels will dream the perfect kiss.

All the signs that pointed home
turned their backs the more I roamed
and walked where love would never call my name.
So let me take you to the train
and hold you softer than the rain.
We`re all alone, two alley cats
curled up like a scarf and hat.

Who knows how it came to this.
I don`t know you and you don`t know me.
But sometimes strangers cross that great abyss.
That`s when angels will dream the perfect kiss.

Either way it`s no use now.
He`s up there and I`m down here.
But I must try to make the best of this.
Someday angels will dream the perfect kiss.
Someday angels will dream the perfect kiss.
