Angelita

[Verse 1]

It was a beautiful sight -- all in the blink of an eye
Like at the end of the night when the darkness turns to light
And with a promise to be you kept it burnin' for me
Like the sun in July when it hurts too much to see

[Chorus]

You were the only one who knew
All the hell I put you through
You were the tested, tried, and true, Angelita
You were the only pair of eyes
Clear enough to recognize
You were the first to realize, Angelita

[Verse 2]

I kept you hidden away, seven years to the day
The twenty-seventh of May, Angelita
And you were beautiful then -- but you're astonishing now
As much as life will allow let me be the one to say

[Chorus]

You were the only one who knew
All the hell I put you through
You were the tested, tried, and true, Angelita
You were the only pair of eyes
Clear enough to recognize
You were the first to realize, Angelita

I kept you hidden away (I kept you hidden away), seven years to the day (seven years to the day)
Seven years to the day (seven years to the day), Angelita
I started running away (I started running away), seven years to the day (seven years to the day)
Seven years to the day (seven years to the day), Angelita
