I need a sign to let me know you're hereAll of these lines are being crossed over the atmosphereI need to know that things are gonna look up'Cause I feel us drowning in a sea spilled from a cupWhen there is no place safe and no safe place to put my headWhen you can feel the world shake from the words that I said And I'm calling all angelsAnd I'm calling all you angels And I won't give up if you don't give up I won't give up if you don't give up I won't give up if you don't give up I won't give up if you don't give up I need a sign to let me know you're here'Cause my TV set just keeps it all from being clearI want a reason for the way things have to beI need a hand to help build up some kind of hope inside of me And I'm calling all angelsAnd I'm calling all you angels When children have to play inside so they don't disappearWhile private eyes solve marriage lies cause we don't talk for yearsAnd football teams are kissing queens and losing sight of having dreamsIn a world where all we want is only what we want until it's ours And I'm calling all angelsAnd I'm calling all you angelsAnd I'm calling all angels(I won't give up if you don't give up)And I'm calling all you angels(I won't give up if you don't give up)Calling all you angels(I won't give up if you don't give up)Calling all you angels(I won't give up if you don't give up)Calling all you angels

Well this is just between us but between us let's get highIn pictures I have seen her and to see her is truly fineShe's on fireShe's on fire Flowers in her evening set I get the feeling she won't forgetAnd there's times you'd long to be her but to be her is surely blindingShe's on fireShe's on fireShe's on to meAnd I'm over meShe's on fire And if I could be inside her lightI would steal enough to make my way into the nightAnd if I could be inside her light I might just find I'd be alright Well it's not just a daydream if you decide to make it your lifeAnd this is not between us but between us let's keep getting back to where it's fromShe's on fireShe's on fireShe's on to meAnd I'm over meShe's on fireShe's on to meAnd I'm over meShe's over meAnd I'm on to herShe's on fireShe's on fireShe's on fire

When it rains it pours and opens doorsThat flood the floors we thought would always keep us safe and dryAnd in the midst of sailing ships we sink our lips into the ones we loveThat have to say goodbye And as I float along this oceanI can feel you like a notion that won't seem to let me go Cause when I look to the sky something tells me you're here with meAnd you make everything alright And when I feel like I'm lost something tells me you're here with meAnd I can always find my way when you are here And every word I didn't say caught up in some busy dayAnd every dance on the kitchen floor we didn't have beforeAnd every sunset that we'll miss I'll wrap them all up in a kissPick you up in all of this when I sail away And while I float along this oceanI can feel you like a notion that I hope will never leave Cause when I look to the sky something tells me you're here with meAnd you make everything alright And when I feel like I'm lost something tells me you're here with meAnd I can always find my way Whether I am up or down or in or out or just plain overheadInstead it just feels like it's impossible to flyBut with you I can spread my wingsto see me over everything that life may send me When I am hoping it won't pass me by And when I feel like there is no one that will ever know methere you are to show me When I look to the sky something tells me you're here with meAnd you make everything alright And when I feel like I'm lost something tells me you're here with meAnd I can always find my way when you are here When I look to the sky something tells me you're here with meAnd I can always find my way when you are hereAnd when I feel like I'm lost something tells me you're here with meAnd I can always find my way when you are here
