lyrics

A sentimental boy sees an all-out angel
Strolling on the border of the avenue.
She doesn’t look like another stranger.
She walks and talks like the locals do.

Walking in the morning and the stormy weather.
Waiting on the corner for the lights to change.
She slips up beside him with her umbrella.
Then they cross together in the pouring rain.

Whenever he sees her it all has meaning.
There’s so much more than he conceived!
Endeavours to tell her how much he adores her.
And just how brilliant she can be!

The sentimental boy and the all-out angel,
Grab a cup of coffee in a shop he knew
They talk about the weather and where they've come from.
She’s up from the city for a week or two.

The fellow in the ballad and the city’s angel,
Build a bigger bridge into a better world.
When they get together there's no more danger.
The change is amazing - bright as pearl.

Whenever he sees her it all has meaning.
There’s so much more than he conceived!
Endeavours to tell her how much he adores her.
And just how brilliant she can be!
And just how brilliant she can be!
And just how brilliant she can be!
