awkward angel - gabriel kahane lyrics

Loading...

{w. h. auden]

oh, that awkward angel
that blonde, impossible boy
evermore in flight away from me
and yet, such joy

oh, that awkward angel
the pale perfection of his cheek
when i try to kiss him, he just laughs at me
yet i grow weak
all around they whisper, “what a fool is he
to carry on with such a boy who can’t be caught”
but if i recall the teaching the preacher said to me
you’ll be saved if all you want is what you’ve got

oh, that awkward angel
at last, i’m in love and it’s fine
he keeps me away, i don’t mind
could it be what i love best is the sight
of my awkward angel in flight?
