about

This slower ballad originally titled "Searching" featured in our early live sets. Taking Phil's original lyrics, Dave updated the theme slightly after inspiration from the famous sculpture "Angel of the North"

lyrics

HIGH ON A HILLSIDE, AN ANGEL IS WATCHING
HOPING TO FIND YOU, AND WELCOME YOU NORTHWARDS

STANDING BEFORE YOU, WITH ARMS OUTSTRETCHED REACHING
HOPING TO FIND YOU, AND WELCOME YOU HOMEWARD

THIS NIGHT. COLD AND ALONE
HE'S CALLING. HE'S CALLING
TRYING TO CALL YOU BACK HOME, BACK HOME.


ALL THAT HE SEES, ALL THAT HE FEELS, HERE RIGHT NOW, HERE RIGHT NOW
SEARCHING FOR LIFE, THROWAWAY THE FEAR. OH. HE IS HERE, HE IS HERE RIGHT NOW

CARRY YOU THROUGH. BE WITH YOU NOW, OVER THE RIVER, INTO THE LIGHT
SEARCHING FOR LIFE THROWAWAY THE FEAR. OH. HE IS HERE, HE IS HERE RIGHT NOW


HIGH ON A HILLSIDE, AN ANGEL IS WATCHING
HOPING TO FIND YOU AND WELCOME YOU HOMEWARD

THIS TIME HE'S CALLING WITH ARMS OUTSTRETCHED WAITING
HE'S FLYING, HE'S CRYING, HE'S TRYING TO CARRY YOU HOME
