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

i love blue rodeo and both greg and jim are truly beautiful singer song writers its sad that they dont have more recognition for their immense talent :( its a sad reminder of what this world has come to in terms of taste in music

I just heard this song for the first time and I’ve fallen in love with it.

This album 💿 is killer! It’s what 1st turned me on to Blue Rodeo.

This has long been at the top of my list of "most beautiful songs ever written". I love both versions (Sarah's background vocals are soooo haunting, but this version is so touching in its simplicity). Greg is a true poet...his writing always touches my soul.

I probably contributed 1000 views of the 38,000! My favorite song of all time! I was watching the movie St.Ralph when I heard a small portion of this song! Had me hook ever since!

A dark angel is a soldier angel from god.

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