You've been gone about a year And still I catch myself a-wondering What you would say if you were here If you could somehow reappear? You never do but I feel something A half a flyer on a telephone pole The Virgin Mary on a cinnamon role A face in a cab flying by You always send me a strange angel That's how you let me know you're there You always send me a strange angel Then this must be an extrasensory affair I was shutting down with blinders on You snapped me out of my desperation Would you believe you broke the spell? And when I'm laughing to myself I know you're in on the conversation I used to think it was déjà vu Now I know that it's just you Playing a trick on my mind You always send me a strange angel That's how you let me know you're there You always send me a strange angel And this must be an extrasensory affair I won't shake my head And I won't rub my eyes When you reveal yourself In some beautiful disguise You always send me a strange angel That's how you let me know you're there You always send me a strange angel This must be an extrasensory affair Strange angel You always send me You always send me You've been gone about a year
