'The Angels Stopped Singing'

lyrics by bob friedman GHCH

 there's a train whistle blowing off in the distance, is he calling for me or is he just waving? i stand on the edge and can't go no further, yes you can says the voice you just got to keep trying, your friends they are like the water they'll be all around you, i stand on the edge and can't go no further, there's no telling when the engine will falter, who's gonna think that the bells have stopped ringing, who's gonna think that the angels stopped singing

i stand on the edge and can't go no further, don't tell me the story of the liar left naked, all alone in the jungle no salvation comes calling, i stand on the edge and can't go no further, i've been down here new orleans under water, changing memories as the city lay dying, who's gonna think that the angels stopped singing, i stand on the edge and can't go no further
