you came down as if from heaven
laid a soft hand on me
i kept on walking and thinking
where my life's gone i should weep

well i don't know where i've been going
i've never known the reason why
so listen to me
i'm scared to cry

the angel sat down at my table
i told her all my doubts and pain
she said there always is a time for love
that it would come to me again

well i don't know where i've been going
i've never known the reason why
so listen to me
i'm scared to cry

yeh, yeh, yeh
well i don't know where i've been going
i've never known the reason why
so listen to me
i'm scared to cry
yes, i am
so listen to me
i'm scared to cry

yeh, yeh, yeh, yeh
i don't know where i've been going
no, and i'm scared to cry
oh no, you gotta listen to me
yeh, you gotta listen
listen to me
cos i'm scared to cry
