I see her everyday at this coffee place   The weird old lady everybody called Pearl   Cause she was always sitting by herself and knitting   A big enough comforter to cover the world.   So one day I decided I'd buy her a cup   She didn't notice me as I came walking up   Her finger to her lips, I heard her softly say,   'Shhh! Be careful or you'll scare them away'.      There are Angels, Angels dancing   Dancing on the head of a pin.   If you come closer you can see them. Spin.   And maybe this is Heaven, and my suffering days are through.   There are Angels, Angels dancing   Can you see them, too?      What was I to say, couldn't just turn away   Even if she's crazy, what harm could it do?   So I came close enough to pull up a chair   Her sparkling eyes were saying,   Come they're right over there.   Was it a trick of the light?   Dust in the morning sun?   It sure looked like they were havin' some fun.      There are Angels, Angels dancing   Dancing on the head of a pin.   If you look closer, you can see them. Spin.   And maybe, this is Heaven, and my suffering days are through.   There are Angels, Angels dancing   Can you see them,too?      INSTRUMENTAL      I never saw her again   It's like she disappeared   And when I ask around   Nobody knows her here.   Was it just a dream   Or just too much caffeine?   Guess she finished mending her broken wing.      There are Angels, Angels dancing,   Dancing on the head of a pin.   If you look close you can see them. Spin.   And I know this is Heaven,    And my suffering days are through.   There are Angels, Angels dancing   You can see them, too.      Angels dancing.      You can see them, too.
