Lyrics
When the spirit slips away
There's nothing you can do
There's nothing you can say
May the angels
Be watching over you
When your spirit slips away
When the darkness starts to fall
You're on your own
And your back's against the wall
May the angels
Bring their flame to you
When the darkness, it starts to fall
When the music that make you blue
Unfolds its secrets
The mysteries are told to you
May the angels sing rejoice to you
That fateful day
When your spirit slips away
Writer(s): Philip Parris Lynott
