DARK ANGEL (Benny Joy) BENNY JOY (DEMO, recorded in Nasville 1958) Dark Angel, Dark Angel, I know you've come for me I know you've come to claim my soul for all eternity I just had a vision, deep down in my mind As I felt that bullet hit my head But I need just a little more time Dark Angel, Dark Angel, I need a little more time For I am still a young man, restless as I can be I've still got so much to learn, so much to do and see A woman made a fool of me, but I still love her so She drove me to this suicide, but I'm just not ready to go I'm just not ready to go, I'm just not ready to go Dark Angel, Dark Angel, I know you've come for me I know you've come to assist my change in personality My breath is getting shorter now And day has turned to night But I'm not ready to leave this world So please don't take my life Dark Angel, Dark Angel, please don't take my life My mind's been so tormented, she treated me so cold I wanted to possess that woman, heart, body and soul When I saw her with another man She made me break down and cry In a jealous rage I pulled that trigger But I really don't want to die I really don't want to die, I really don't want to die Dark Angel, Dark Angel, I know you've come for me I can see you standing at the gates of all infinity But what's this? I'm regaining consciousness I'm in a hospital And they tell me that's it's not the end Dark Angel, Dark Angel I wanna thank you And I'll never shoot myself again |
