It was a cold and wet December day
When we touched down at JFK
Snow was melting on the ground
On BLS I heard the sound (of an Angel)
New York like a Christmas tree
I said tonight this city belongs to me (Angel)
Soul love this love won't let me go
So long Angel of Harlem
Birdland on 53, the street sounds like a symphony
We got John Coltrane and a love supreme
Soul love this love won't let me go
So long Angel of Harlem
ooh ooh ooh ooh she sings with heart, heart and soul
yeaahhh yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeahhhh
Blue light on the avenue
God knows they got to you
An Angel in Devil's shoes
Salvation in the blues
You never looked like an Angel
So long Angel of Harlem
Angel, Angel of Harlem (4x)
