Alice Peacock - City Of Angels Lyrics

Artist: Alice Peacock

Album: Love Remains

Genre: Folk

  • Songwriters: Danny Myrick, Alice Peacock

Last night I had a dream
That I'd done things differently
And I'd let you go back to Chicago
Where the lake is clear and wide
You can't see the other side

And the folks are real
They'll tell you how they feel
So I stayed on the fairer coast
Until I became a ghost

Oh fantasy, let this poor girl be
City of angels, you're no good for me
Well, there's no use in regret
Some things I'd just soon forget

Jesus loves me this I know
'Cause my momma told me so
And the sun don't always shine
In this crazy life of mine

You can't wash away the pain
Yeah, when it never rains
I don't need to be no star down
On Sunset Boulevard

Living an empty dream
Where things ain't what they seem
City of angels, you're no good for me
City of angels, city of angels

You got me wrapped around your little finger
Into the fire, sweet city of angels
Last night I had a dream
That I'd done things differently

And I let you go, yeah I had to let you go
City of angels, city of angels
You got me wrapped around your little finger
Into the fire, sweet city of angels
