Forest Field – Angels?

forest field - ANGELS

 Musicians:

Phil Vincent: all vocals (www.philvincentbands.com)
Peter Cox: all instruments and voices on tracks 3 and 6
All songs by Peter Cox, with lyrical adaptions by Phil Vincent.
Recorded, mixed, mastered and produced at Down The Road studio Netherlands. Vocals recorded at The Musik Room, USA.
After the great response to last year’s Onwards And Upwards CD (with some calling it the best album in its genre for the past couple of years), it is time to ROCK a bit more. Maybe because the theme of this album lends itself to that. Maybe because some love the guitar work most. Or maybe just because we like to, and we can… Rest assured, those beloved melodic vocals are still present!
Anyway, this time it is about relationships, and the instrumental songs have a link with the album title, Angels? Relationships are important, and need effort to last. But do not take it all too seriously, sometimes you need to make a little fun about it…

Thanks:

All who have supported us, all people who buy independent music keep it alive!
Our families, friends and fans.
On the following album show you can hear Peter talk about the songs and inspiration for them as well as listen to all the tracks:

Lyrics:

2. ANGELS

 

you see me running

you see me hiding

why don’t you lend a helping hand

you see me praying

you see me painting love

why do you never seem to care

 

and when I go down bleeding

will I watch the ceiling

untill the angels come down from above

and when I lay down crying

all my dreams are dying

will you cure me with your love

 

I pass unnoticed

behind your blue eyes

though I feel we’re the perfect pair

I wanna touch you

oh lord, how I love you

but you leave me in despair

I wanna feel something real

I want your skin all over me

I wanna sweat, want you to get

right next to me till I fall asleep

 

and when I go down bleeding

will I watch the ceiling

untill the angels come down from above

and when I lay down crying

all my dreams are dying

will you cure me with your love

 

yeah those angels

oh they’re gonna seduce you

they make you lose your mind

when they say they love you

they know how to fool you

they gonna leave you running blind

 

 

4. It Looks Like Rain

 

Clouds are gathering

There’s thunder in the distance

The heat starts to rise

But it´s cooling down below

It is slowly getting dark

everybody’s running home

You see the lightning strike

But there’s nowhere left to go

 

It looks like rain

Falling down on me

It looks like rain

As far as the eye can see

Pouring down pouring down on me

 

drowning in the night

With every raindrop falling

I feel so alive

The distant thunder’s calling

 

It looks like rain

Falling down on me

It looks like rain

As far as the eye can see

Pouring down pouring down on me

 

In every life

A little rain must fall

Sometimes we fight

It feels just like a storm

The sun will be shining

Behind all the clouds

 

Chorus

with every raindrop falling

can you hear the thunder calling

 

5. Angel with a dirty face

 

Feeling lucky maybe

A mild manic nirvana

An energized euphoria

Or just a natural high

 

You’re an angel with a dirty face

But you’re the one I need

you’re an Angel with a dirty face

I just can’t seem to leave

 

feeling happy baby

you are not the only one in my head

and when I wake up

you’re next to me in my bed

sensation coming over me

just like the honey and the bees

you’re giving in to me

so get down on your knees

 

You’re an angel with a dirty face

But you’re the one I need

Angel with a dirty face

Even if you ’re hard to please

 

the feeling that is building

Butterflies and all

You feel like you could fly

my angel here’s my call

you sometimes shout and lie

kick like a mule and scream

but even without wings

you are the angel of my dream

 

You’re an angel with a dirty face

But you’re the one I love

You’re an angel with a dirty face

sent here from above

 

you sometimes shout and cry

You crack the whip and scream

oh even without wings

you are my dream

 

 

7. THE ZOO

 

staring at the people

they seem to be in pain

when they seem to have fun

is life so vain ?

what does it mean

to have a dream

of me and you in the sun

 

take me to the zoo

where I can watch what you people do

take me to the zoo

where I can watch my time with you

 

staring at the water

it’s staring back at me

deep inside I’m hurt

deep inside I’m me

 

gazing at the people

nobody is sane

another brutal lie today

is life so in vain ?

what does it mean

to have a dream

of me and you in the sun

 

take me to the zoo

where I can watch what you people do

take me to the zoo

where I can watch my time with you

 

staring in the mirror

it’s staring back at me

deep inside I’m happy

deep inside I’m free

 

 

9. Change Me

 

Nobody is perfect all the time

just like a sinner telling a little white lie

I know we don´t always see eye to eye

I am who I am my friend just a man lost in time

 

You can´t change me

You can´t make me someone I’m not

You can´t change me

So don’t even try to stop

 

You want to cut me down to size

Tell me what to do and say

You think it makes me look so wise

But you’re a million miles away

But I am who I am

And who I want to be

I  am who I am my friend

And nobody’s ever changing me

 

I may not be perfect

I may not be so cool

I may not be a millionaire

But I ain’t nobody’s fool

I do what I want

I know what’s best for me

I’ll become a better man

Just you wait and see

 

You can´t change me

You can´t make me someone I’m not

You can´t change me

So don’t even try to stop

You can´t change me

You can´t build the better man

You can´t change me

But only I can

 

 

10. SPOT ON THE SUN

 

with a smile on his face

a twinkle in his eye

he says hello to the day….

 

weather looks good

the sun is shining

get up on your feet

seize the day

‘cause life’s too short

to let it slip away

 

here today gone tomorrow

live by heart and leave the sorrow

we’re a spot on the sun, a fly on the wall

take a big bite of life before you fall

 

feeling allright

your heart is pumping

get your butt of your seat

make your day

your life’s too short

to let it slip away

 

repeat chorus

 

with a smile on his face

a twinkle in his eye

hands in his pockets

a burning fire inside

never blind to beauty

not afraid of light

no fear of the dark

he burns tonight

 

repeat chorus

 

with a smile on his lips

not afraid of light

he says goodbye to the night….
