A man is placed upon the steps, a baby cries
And high above him you hear the church bells start to ring.
The heaviness, the heaviness of it settles in,
A mother starts to sing.

Then it´s one foot then the other as you step along the road
Steppin´ on the road, how much weight, how much weight?
And it´s how long and how far and how many times,
Oh, before it´s too late?

Calling all angels, Calling all angels.
Walk me through this one, don´t leave me alone.
Calling all angels, Calling all angels.
We´re trying, we´re hoping, but we´re not sure how...

Oh and every day you gaze upon the sunset
With such love and intensity.
Why it´s almost as if, if you could only crack the code
You´d finally understand what this all means.

Oh but if you could, do you think you would
Have traded all the pain and suffering?
Oh, but then you would´ve missed the beauty of the light upon this earth
And the sweetness of the leaving.

Calling all angels, Calling all angels!
Walk me through this one, don´t leave me alone
Calling all angels, calling all angels,
We´re trying, we´re hoping but we´re not sure...

Calling all angels (call all angels)
Calling all angels (call all angels)
Walk me through this one
Don´t leave me alone.

Calling all angels, Calling all angels
We´re trying, we´re hoping, we´re hurting, we´re loving
We´re crying, we´re calling,
But we´re not sure how this goes.
