If you see me coming up an open road
With an empty glass and a single rose
Take a turn towards the shifting light
There you'll see my shadow lost in the night
Endless flight has no directions now
To a coward's kiss from a hero's vow
If I could find the words, I'd pick up the phone
If I was half a man, I wouldn't sleep alone
Send me no more angels on a restless wind
All I ever wanted were the simple things
If a love like ours means anything
Show me a sign, honey, dip your wings
Oh you shook your head like a wild horse
Beneath the southern cross in the frozen North
Oh when our bodies touched on that burning beach
I could have sworn that heaven was within our reach
Send me no more angels on a restless wind
All I ever wanted were the simple things
If a love like ours means anything
Show me a sign, honey, dip your wings
Time just crawls here behind my eyes
If the scar heals, can our love survive
Life's only purpose seems so distant now
If thee's a chance at all won't you show me how
Send me no more angels on a restless wind
All I ever wanted were the simple things
If a love like ours means anything
Show me a sign, honey, dip your wings
With an empty glass and a single rose
Take a turn towards the shifting light
There you'll see my shadow lost in the night
Endless flight has no directions now
To a coward's kiss from a hero's vow
If I could find the words, I'd pick up the phone
If I was half a man, I wouldn't sleep alone
Send me no more angels on a restless wind
All I ever wanted were the simple things
If a love like ours means anything
Show me a sign, honey, dip your wings
Oh you shook your head like a wild horse
Beneath the southern cross in the frozen North
Oh when our bodies touched on that burning beach
I could have sworn that heaven was within our reach
Send me no more angels on a restless wind
All I ever wanted were the simple things
If a love like ours means anything
Show me a sign, honey, dip your wings
Time just crawls here behind my eyes
If the scar heals, can our love survive
Life's only purpose seems so distant now
If thee's a chance at all won't you show me how
Send me no more angels on a restless wind
All I ever wanted were the simple things
If a love like ours means anything
Show me a sign, honey, dip your wings
