Court And Spark

Love came to my door with a sleeping roll

And a madman's soul

He thought for sure I'd seen him

Dancing up a river in the dark

Looking for a woman to court and spark

He was playing on the sidewalk for passing change

When something strange happened

Glory train passed through him

So, he buried the coins he made in People's Park

Went looking for a woman to court and spark

Seem like you read my mind

He saw me mistrusting him

And still acting kind

He saw how I worried sometimes

How I worried sometimes

"All the guilty people", he said

"They've all seen the stain

On their daily bread, on their Christian names"

Oh, I cleared myself, I sacrificed my blues

You could complete me, I'd complete you

His eyes were the color of the sand and the sea

And the more he talked to me, the more he reached me

Oh, but I couldn't let go of LA

City of the fallen angels
