Suzanne Vega
Angel’s Doorway (Acoustic Version)
[Verse 1]
Angel comes home
His clothes in a cloud
Of the dirt and the dust and destruction
[Verse 2]
She waits inside
She knows he's arrived
She feels this with no introduction
[Chorus]
At Angel's door
You have to leave it on the floor
You don't bring it in
He can't show
What she doesn't want to know
Those things he's seen
[Verse 3]
She knows the smell
Of that life he can't tell
Of the fires and the flesh and confusion
[Verse 4]
Inside his brain
It's never the same
Though he tries to maintain the illusion
[Chorus]
At Angel's door
You have to leave it on the floor
You don't bring it in
He can't show
What she doesn't want to know
Those things he's seen
[Verse 1]
Angel comes home
His clothes in a cloud
Of the dirt and the dust and destruction
