Dar Williams - Speaking With The Angel Lyrics

He don't know how to lie or undermine you
He don't know how to steal, how to deal or deceive
So leave him alone, set him free
'Cause he's speaking with the angel
Speaking with the angel that only he can see

You'd say he's so helpless, but what about you?
You don't pull the string, don't you know anything?
Leave him alone, let him be
'Cause he's speaking with the angel
Speaking with the angel that only he can see

Would you teach him 'bout heaven?
Would you show him how to love the earth?
Would you poison him with prejudice from
The moment of his birth?

He in the name of love, he in the blood of lamb
He that never lays blame, he don't even know his name
So leave him alone, set him free
'Cause he's speaking with the angel
Speaking with the angel (the very one)
That spoke to you and me
Oh do you remember?
