(spoken sometimes with one voice, sometimes with voices)
Santa Maria, Santa Teresa, Santa Anna, Santa Susannah
Santa Cecilia, Santa Copelia, Santa Domenica, Mary Angelica
Frater Achad, Frater Pietro, Julianus, Petronilla
Santa, Santos, Miroslaw, Vladimir
and all the rest (count 4 for pause)
a man is placed upon the steps, a baby cries and
high above you can hear the church bells start to ring
and the heaviness the heaviness oh it settles in
somewhere you can hear a mother sing
then it's one foot then the other as you step out on the road
step out on the road
how much weight? how much weight?
then it's how long? and how far?
and how many times oooh before it's too late?
calling all angels
calling all angels
walk me through this one
don't leave me alone
calling all angels
calling all angels
we're tryin, we're hopin
But we're not sure how
and every day you gaze upon the sunset
with such love and intensity
why it's almost as if
if you could only crack the code
you'd finally understand what this all means
Ah but if you could do you think you would
trade in all, all the pain and suffering?
ah, but then you would have missed
the beauty of the light upon this earth
and the sweetness of the leaving
calling all angels
calling all angels
walk me through this one
don't leave me alone
calling all angels
calling all angels
we're tryin, we're hopin
But we're not sure how
calling all angels (calling all angels)
calling all angels (calling all angels)
walk me through this one (walk me through this one)
don't leave me alone
calling all angels
calling all angels
we're tryin, we're hopin
We're hurtin', we're lovin
we're cryin, we're calling
Cause we're not sure how.....
