ANGEL IN BLUE J. Geils Band We met in a bar Out on Chesapeake Bay With her white patent boots And her blouse red lame A table top dancer She would smile on cue Oh those lips of an angel Angel in blue She'd been dancin for ages Through cities of bars She was kickin' the habit Of scoring in cars She'd been drained of her spirit All caged up in this zoo A wild cat angel Angel in blue And as she stared out into nowhere I thought yes I thought she might break down and cry Oh when I whispered I thought I could love her She just said, "Baby don't even bother to try" And I watched as she spoke Her words chilled my bones All her friends did her favors That were really just loans And she never had dreams So they never came true Oh the palest of angels Angel in blue And the bees they had stung her The birds they had flown There were guys she could number But none had she known And she never had dreams So they never came true Oh my fade away angel Angel in blue Angel in blue Angel in blue Angel in blue
