I thought I`d go up Poughkeepsie,
look out o`er the Hudson,
and I`d throw my body down on the river.
And I`d know no more sorrow,
I`d fly like the sparrow
and I`d ride on the backs of the angels tonight.
I`d ride on the backs of the angels tonight.
I`d take to the sky with all my might.
No more drowning in my sorrow,
no more drowning in my fright,
I`d just ride on the backs of the angels tonight.
There are those who know sorrow
and those who must borrow
and those whose lot in life is sweet.
Well I`m drunk on self-pity,
scorned all that`s been given me,
I would drink from a bottle labeled Sure Defeat.
I`d ride on the backs of the angels tonight.
I`d take to the sky with all my might.
No more drowning in my sorrow,
no more drowning in my fright,
I`d just ride on the backs of the angels tonight.
Then the skies, they fell open
and my eyes were opened
to a world of hope falling at my feet.
Now I`ve no more or less
than anyone else has,
what I have is a gift of life I can`t repeat.
So I go up Poughkeepsie,
look out o`er the Hudson
and I cast my worries to the sky.
Now I still know sorrow,
but I can fly like the sparrow
`cause I ride on the backs of the angels tonight.
I ride on the backs of the angels tonight.
I take to the sky with all their might.
No more drowning in my sorrow,
no more drowning in my fright,
I`ll just ride on the backs of the angels each night. Send " Poughkeepsie" Ringtone to your Cell
