Dark Angel

Lovely song by Greg Keelor of Blue Rodeo.

Love this.

I met this girl
She was walking through one of my dreams
She kissed my eyes
And everything that she said
Made so much sense to me
That I still feel like I'm half asleep

My dark angel
She gave me diamonds for eyes
She walked by
Now I'm hypnotised
By this dream
That just won't stop
And I feel
Like I've always been lost in this dream

The rumours of heaven
Only speak the truth on earth
My dark angel
Shine your light on my curse
You are the other that I have to find
Until I do
I guess I'll see you 'round my mind

So Colorado
Is a place I have to go
I heard a rumour
She loves the mountains and the snow
My dark angel
She gave me diamonds for eyes
My dark angel
I offer you my heart
My dark angel
I think I loved you from the start

'Cause there's this face that I know
That I've never seen
Sometimes I feel I'm livin' in
Someone else's dream
Still I thank you
For stopping to talk
And I wonder
Just into who's dream did who walk
Oh my dark angel
Shine your light on me
Shine your light
Shine your light
Shine your light on me
On me
On me

This song is beyond explanation. The performance is better than the original.

One of the best kept secrets in music. This group is great. Any idea what year this was recorded? thanks for posting.

A lovely song. This version is much more intimate than the one with Sarah. I do love that version as well, but it is a different dynamic. More haunting I suppose. This one, it is just Greg and us. I can see him singing this for someone he once longed for.
