PJ Harvey - Angelene Lyrics

My first name, Angelene
Prettiest mess you ever seen
Love for money is my sin
Any man calls, I'll let him in

Rose is my color and white
And pretty mouth and green, my eyes
I see men come and go
But there'll be one who will collect my soul and come to me

Two thousand miles away
He walks upon the coast
Two thousand miles away
It lays open like a road

Dear God, life ain't kind
And people gettin' born and dyin'
But I've heard there's joy untold
It lays open like a road in front of me

Two thousand miles away
He walks upon the coast
Two thousand miles away
Lays open like a road

It seems so far away
I see men come and go
Two thousand miles until
I reach that open road

My first name's Angelene
