Down from the ridge Where the summer ends We'll watch the city Spread out Just like a jet's flame I've got a secret for you I cut your angel in two I left her bleeding And soaked it with a dry sponge No life has singed her now No life has singed her now No life has singed her now I can see it fade We've got a license to live It's our only one If it expires We float up to the dust haze I've got a secret for you I cut your angel in two I saw her spinning and dripping On your new dress No life has singed her now No life has singed her now No life has singed her now I can see it fade
