Brand New Angel - Jeff Bridges

Well it rained last night

And the stars shone bright

And way off yonder

We heard the whippoorwill

At the first light of dawn

We heard that he was gone

Our hearts was empty

And our eyes was filled

Open the gates

Welcome him in

There’s a brand new angel

A brand new angel with an old violin

In music we heard

All the songs of the birds

And he said that some songs

Was like clear fall days

But he played his last refrain;

Oh, but the song will remain

Though he’s put his bow down

And closed his case

Open the gates

Welcome him in

'Cause there’s a brand new angel

There’s a brand new angel with a old violin
