Racing The Angels Lyrics - The Dreaming Fields - Matraca Berg

Last night I dreamed I was standing at Heaven's gate 

Calling out your name but no one ever came 

Can't find no mercy, no comfort without you here 

God it just ain't fair but I'm sending up a prayer 

There'll come a day, one sweet day 

When I fly, when I fly 

I'll be racing the angels all the way home 

When I die, gonna fly 

Racing the angels into your arms 

It's just grace and gravity keeps me here 

Keeps me on the ground, my soul earth bound 

I know you'd hate to see it the shape I'm in 

This ain't no way to live, and God knows 

What I'd give to see your face, your sweet face 

When I fly, when I fly 

I'll be racing the angels all the way home 

When I die, gonna fly 

Racing the angels into your arms
