IT WAS A COLD AND WET DECEMBER DAY
WHEN WE TOUCHED DOWN AT JFK
SNOW WAS MELTING ON THE GROUND
ON BLS I HEARD THE SOUND OF AN ANGEL

NEW YORK LIKE A CHRISTMAS TREE
I SAID TONIGHT THIS CITY BELONGS TO ME,ANGEL

SOUL LOVE THIS LOVE WON´T LET ME GO
SO LONG, ANGEL OF HARLEM

BIRDLAND ON 53
THE STREET SOUNDS LIKE A SYMPHONY
WE GOT JOHN COLTRANE AND A LOVE SUPREME
MILES AND SHE HAS TO BE AN ANGEL

LADY DAY GOT DIAMOND EYES
SHE SEES THE TRUTH BEHIND THE LIES, ANGEL

SOUL LOVE THIS LOVE WON´T LET ME GO
SO LONG, ANGEL OF HARLEM

BLUE LIGHT ON THE AVENUE
GOD KNOWS THEY GOT TO YOU
AN EMPTY GLASS, THE LADY SINGS
EYES SWOLLEN LIKE A BEE STING
BLINDED YOU LOST YOUR WAY
ON THE SIDE STREETS AND THE ALLEYWAYS
LIKE A STAR EXPLODING IN THE NIGHT
FILLING UP THE CITY WITH BROAD DAYLIGHT
AN ANGEL IN DEVIL´S SHOES
SALVATION IN THE BLUES
YOU NEVER LOOKED LIKE AN ANGEL

SO LONG, ANGEL OF HARLEM
