(with Rodney Crowell)
I got no use for harps and wings
I got no time for foolish things
There is no heaven, there is no hell
There’s only you, my dark angel
Your bleeding heart, your pilgrim soul
Your wounded eyes, that take their toll
Your ragged voice like a broken bell
Against the noise, my dark angel
And if there is no hereafter
And there is only here
Life is still a beautiful disaster
Ah but you know that my dear
So let the curtain rise, let the great world spin
If it’s all for show – let the show begin
Everybody’s got something, something to sell
Except for you, my dark angel
There is no heaven, there is no hell
There’s only you, my dark angel
There’s only you, my dark angel
