You know the distance never made a difference to me

I swam a lake of fire I'd have walked across the floor of any sea

Ignored the vastness between all that can be seen

And all that we believe

So I thought you were like an angel to me

Funny how true colours shine in darkness and in secrecy

If there were scarlet flags

They washed out in the mind of me

Where a blinding light shone on you every night

And either side of my sleep

Where you were held frozen like an angel to me

It ain't the being alone

Sha la la

It ain't the empty home baby

Sha la la

You know I'm good on my own

Sha la la

Sha la la baby

You know it's more the being unknown

So much of the living love is the being unknown

You called me angel for the first time

My heart leapt from me

You smile now

I can see its pieces still stuck in your teeth

And what's left of it I listen to it tick

Every tedious beat going unknown

As any angel to me

Do you know I could break beneath the weight of the goodness love

I still carry for you

That I'd walk so far just to take the injury of finally knowing you

And it ain't the being alone

Sha la la

It ain't the empty home baby

Sha la la

You know I'm good on my own

Sha la la

Sha la la baby

You know it's more the being unknown

And there are some people love

Who are better unknown
