Nine
An Angel Fell
[VERSE 1]
This is the world's longest kept secret
Won't fit in any coffin or locket
No shoebox would ever hold true
What I feel for you

Only one cage can contain my whispers
And it's keeping your lungs, your heart and your jitters
Your spark of good that still shines through
And says "I love you"

[PRE-Chorus]
You made the stars
You made reason
You made my heart beat twice for treason
You made me fall, fall, fall for you

[Chorus]
And an angel fell
On a rainy day
When the ground was cold and there lay
My heart, at your feet
Love, won't you stay with me

[VERSE 2]
You are the world's longest kept secret
Kept in my heart, held close in my pocket
No diamond compares with the sight
Of the sunlight on you

Sweet like a song, sweet like a sonnet
Sweetheart, my feather's caught in your bonnet
Like my adoration and gaze have been caught on you

[PRE-Chorus]
You waged a war against reason
Fought with your heart that beat twice for treason
I would gladly fall, fall, fall, for you

[Chorus]
And an angel fell on a rainy day
When the ground was cold and there lay
My heart, at your feet
Love, won't you stay

So kind, so bright
So blinding with the light that I'd fly to at the cost
Of my wings burning to ash
Yet I'd rise with them anyway
And beg them to bring me to you

[BRIDGE]
Have you ever loved someone so much
You would do anything?
You would be anything?
You'd defy everything?
Have you ever loved someone so much
Hellfire won't mean a thing?
You'd endure any sting?
A nightingale would sing?
Have you ever loved someone so much
You would do anything?
You would be anything?
You'd defy everything?
Have you ever loved someone so much
That you would leave the garden?

Nothing in Eden
Was ever as beautiful as you

This is the world's longest-kept secret:
That I love you

[Chorus]
And I fell, I fell on a rainy day
When the ground was cold and there lay
My heart, at your feet

Love, leave the garden with me?
