OH ANGEL by Ajay Mathur - Another beautiful Richard Koechli interpretation of Ajay's original from his 9 to 3 album. Ajay added the percussion and the bass to the mix.
lyrics
Oh Angel, did you have to say that nothing ever lasts forever. Ah, you tempted, you tempted providence. Now I gaze in silence, it's all over. Take it while you can, is what you used to say. Take life as a joke and you took, and I hoped and prayed, don't go too far. Oh Angel, I hope you made your cloud, and that you're up there somewhere and still laughing. Can you see me, it's kinda lonely down here now, though I know ends mean brand new beginnings. Take it while you can, is what you used to say. Take life as a joke and you took, and I hoped and prayed, don't go too far, oh Angel, oh Angel. Oh Angel, I know you knew too well, your final curtain call has already called you. You bowed out, the only way that you knew how, as long as you could still look in your mirror, oh Angel. long as you could still look in your mirror. Yes, I know ends mean brand new beginnings. Oh Angel, oh Angel. Oh, oh, hey, hey, oh Angel. Oh, oh, oh Angel.
