Here she comes Like rumbling drums Swinging her skirts And talking in spurts Sailing high In her ship of the sky Being found Broken on the ground But when she sings I hear the crash of angel wings When she sings I hear the crash of wings On Sundays she walks On cut glass and rocks On Monday she falls From the sheerest of walls On Tuesday she screams Black words in her dreams On Friday she lies And a part of her dies But when she sings I hear the crash of angel wings When she sings I hear the crash of wings Here she comes Like rumbling drums She's swinging her skirts She's talking in spurts Now she's reading my books Now she's giving me looks As she slips and sways Through murmering days And when she sings I hear the crash of angel wings When she sings I hear the crash of angel wings When she sings I hear the crash of wings Here she comes Like rumbling drums Here she comes Like rumbling drums Like rumbling drums Like rumbling drums
