Robert Samuel: Music > Lyrics

No Angel

No path to glory on the horizon, no relief for me in sight
Don't have no refuge from my addictions, get a hold on me at night
No rocket to escape me to the Sea of Tranquility
I just keep going on in no direction, uncertain, still searching

Don't have no angel, don't have no angel on me
Don't have no angel, no angel riding on me
No light is shining on, but I keep going on, nobody looking on me
Don't have no angel, no angel riding on me

Don't have no crystal ball, no magic mirror revelation coming into view
No written prophecy that can deliver anything that I can hold on to
Don't have no aliens to come to me and show me the way
I just keep moving on with no direction, uncertain, still searching

Don't have no angel, don't have no angel on me
Don't have no angel, no angel riding on me
No light is shining on, but I keep moving on, nobody looking on me
Don't have no angel, no angel riding on me

The music's playing, what serendipity, I'm always out of time
A trail of broken dreams, no retribution
But I keep driving, the warning lights are flashing
To hell with consequence - - I take my chances
Never had much luck, never given anything that was free
I just keep turning in the wrong direction, uncertain still searching
Can this desire keep the fire burning

Don't have no angel, don't have no angel on me
Don't have no angel, no angel riding on me
No light is shining on, but I keep driving on, nobody looking on me
Don't have no angel, no angel riding on me
