Album: High As Hope (2018)
Play Video
  • The show was ending and I had started to crack
    Woke up in Chicago and the sky turned black
    And you're so high, you're so high, you had to be an angel
    And I'm so high, I'm so high, I can see an angel

    I hear your heart beating in your chest
    The world slows 'till there's nothing left
    Skyscrapers look on like great, unblinking giants (oh)

    In those heavy days in June
    When love became an act of defiance

    (Oh)
    (Oh)
    (Oh)
    Hold onto each other
    Hold onto each other
    Hold onto each other
    Hold onto each other

    You were broken-hearted and the world was, too
    And I was beginning to lose my grip
    And I have always held it loosely
    But this time I admit
    I felt it really start to slip

    And choir singing in the street
    And I will come to you
    To watch the television screen
    In your hotel room

    Always down to hide with you
    Hold onto each other
    Hold onto each other
    Hold onto each other
    Hold onto each other

    You're so high, you're so high
    You're so high, you're so high
    You're so high, you're so high
    You had to be an angel
    I'm so high, I'm so high
    I'm so high, I'm so high
    I'm so high, I'm so high
    I can see an angel Writer/s: Florence Leontine Mary Welch
