Drunken Angel - Thea Gilmore

Winter tells its truth to anyone who’ll listen

It will whisper to you slowly when the light is low

I will sit and wonder over everything I’ve written

And still not know

The smell of pine and nursery rhymes is rising

There are some things that are broken and some things to hold tight

To the few brave birds of the season who are sky writing

Shine your light

'Cause there’s a drunken angel

Dances to my heart

Singin' lonely days

Brand new start

Brand new start

And now is the time I will raise my eyes and be honest

And look out across the plane of another tired and reckless year

And give thanks for the love and the wonder that was hurled upon us

And you, my dear

And a drunken angel

Dances to my heart

Singin' lonely days

Brand new start

Brand new start

You can hear the howl of wings, you can feel it when the wine is flowing

And the tired and the lonely lay down their weary heads

And baby, sometimes the beauty in this world comes from just not knowing

Feeling instead

Feeling instead

Feeling instead
