Hand of an angel.
I was alone on the street
My body worn from head to feet
You offered me a coin sheet
But all I could feel was the heat
When our hands did meet
And I knew you was an angel
I heard heaven in your heartbeat
And it broke my heart to meet
As our goodbyes did fleat
And I sat staring at my cup
Wishing my life would change up
But it stayed the same
And here I sit in my remains
