Lyrics
The angel of love was upon me
And Lord, I felt so small
The legs beneath me weakened
I began to crawl

Confused and contented
I slithered around
Reveal is beyond me
I was lost, I was found

The angel of love was upon me
And Lord, I felt so weak
I felt my tongue move in my mouth
And I began to speak

A strange kind of language I don't understand
A babbling fountain I couldn't have planned

Oh, leave me here forevermore
I found the peace I've been searching for

The angel of love was upon me
And Lord, I felt so high
I swear I could have reached up
Placed my hands upon the sky

A radiant rainbow was following me around
With elevated senses, I can see and taste sound

The angel of love was upon me
And Lord, I felt so clean
Like a preacher on Sunday
My heart was serene

I waded into the water
I was bathed, I was drowned
Like the sinners before me
I knelt down on the ground

Oh, leave me here forevermore
I found the peace I've been searching for

Oh, let me sleep forevermore
I found the peace I've been searching for
