"Angel In The Alleyways" lyrics

"Angel In The Alleyways"
(feat. Patti Scialfa & Bruce Springsteen)

(There's angels all around)
(There's angels all around)
(There's angels all around)

Do you walk the streets at night?
Try to stay beneath the light?
Do you sense it as you go?
Maybe you are not alone

An angel walks
An angel prays
By your side at night unseen in the alleyways

Who guides the hand that comes to play?
Like BB King and Stevie Ray
Who takes the pain we didn't choose?
Turns it into Chicago Blues

An angel walks
An angel prays
By your side at night down through the alleyways

A junkie cries and no one hears
A spirit flies to dry his tears
The bottle owns another man
Until he takes the helping hand

A spirit walks
An angel prays
By your side at night unseen through the alleyways

Who knows the spirit who walks beside?
To light and guard, to rule and guide
They walk with Peter, they walk with Paul
Wrestled with Jacob and with us all

An angel walks
An angel prays
By your side at night down through the alleyways

There's angels all around, I know, don't you?
There's angels all around, I know, don't you?
Times when you can't find the word
It comes to you as if you heard
Someone's voice from long ago
Tells you what you need to know

An angel walks
Oh, prays!
By your side at night, child, down in the alleyways

There's angels all around, I know, don't you?
There's angels all around, I know, don't you?
There's angels all around, I know, don't you?
There's angels all around, I know, don't you?

(There's angels all around)
(There's angels all around)
(There's angels all around)
(There's angels all around)
