Jeff Buckley – Farewell Angelina Lyrics  Share

(Bob Dylan)

Farewell Angelina, The bells of the crown
Are being stolen by bandits, I must follow the sound
The triangle tingles, And the trumpets play slow
Farewell Angelina, The sky is on fire
And I must go.

There^,s no need for anger
There^,s no need for blame
There^,s nothing to prove
Ev^,rything^,s still the same
Just a table standing empty
By the edge of the sea
Farewell Angelina
The sky is trembling
And I must leave.

The jacks and the queens
Have forsaked the courtyard
Fifty-two gypsies
Now file past the gaurds
In the space where the deuce
And the ace once ran wild
Farewell Angelina
The sky is folding
I^,ll see you in a while.

See the cross-eyed pirates sitting
[ Farewell Angelina lyrics from

Perched in the sun
Shooting tin cans
With a sawed-off shotgun
And the neighbors they clap
And they cheer with each blast
Farewell Angelina
The sky^,s changing color
And I must leave fast.

King Kong, little elves
On the rooftops they dance
Valentino-type tangos
While the make-up man^,s hands
Shut the eyes of the dead
Not to embarrass anyone
Farewell Angelina
The sky is embarassed
And I must be gone.

The machine guns are roaring
The puppets heave rocks
The fiends nail time bombs
To the hands of the clocks
Call me any name you like
I will never deny it
Farewell Angelina, I must go where it^,s quiet.
