Lyrics of Clockwork Angels by Rush

intro

Hoo-ah-ah-ah...

verse

High above the city square
Globes of light float in mid-air
Higher still, against the night
Clockwork angels bathed in light

verse

You promise every treasure, to the foolish and the wise
Goddesses of mystery, spirits in disguise
Every pleasure, we bow and close our eyes
Clockwork angels, promise every prize

chorus

Clockwork angels, spread their arms and sing
Synchronized and graceful, they move like living things
Goddesses of Light, of Sea and Sky and Land
Clockwork angels, the people raise their hands
As if to fly
As if to fly

verse

All around the city square
Power shimmers in the air
People gazing up with love
To those angels high above

verse

Celestial machinery, move through your commands
Goddesses of mystery, so delicate and so grand
Moved to worship, we bow and close our eyes
Clockwork angels, promise every prize

chorus

Clockwork angels, spread their arms and sing
Synchronized and graceful, they move like living things
Goddesses of Light, of Sea and Sky and Land
Clockwork angels, the people raise their hands
As if to fly
As if to fly

verse

Lean not upon your own understanding
Ignorance is well and truly blessed
Trust in perfect love, and perfect planning
Everything will turn out for the best

verse

And everything will turn out for the best
Stars aglow like scattered sparks
Span the sky in clockwork arcs
Hit at more than we can see
Spiritual machinery

chorus

Clockwork angels, spread their arms and sing
Synchronized and graceful, they move like living things
Goddesses of Light, of Sea and Sky and Land
Clockwork angels, the people raise their hands

chorus

Clockwork angels, spread their arms and sing
Synchronized and graceful, they move like living things
Goddesses of Light, of Sea and Sky and Land
Clockwork angels, the people raise their hands

outro

As if to fly

outro

He-he-he, he-he-hey, what do you lack?
Writer(s): Geddy Lee, Neil Peart, Alex Lifeson
