Orbit of the Angels

Yesterday feeling happy inside
All cozy and warm beside the fire
Wrapped in green cashmere and each other’s arms
We were comfortable, secure and warm

Today it feels like outside looking in
In the cold cold wind where the lone wolf ranges
You’ve shut the door I can’t get in
I’m out beyond the orbit of the angels

The time you say you want to keep you don’t
The love you say you want to give you don’t
The love you say you want to make we can’t
Today’s just kinda been that kind of day, yeah, that kind of day

I’m out beyond the orbit of your angels
I’m out beyond the orbit of your smile
I’m out beyond the orbit of the angels
And it’s cold, cold, cold

Yesterday in a patch of sunlight
Stretched out together in a warm warm love glow
Your soft embrace made everything all right
We were comfortable, secure and warm

Today an icy wind blows steel through my heart
You won’t even pick up the telephone
Like a satellite adrift on the back side of Mars
I’m out beyond the orbit of the angels

The time you say you want to keep you don’t
The love you say you want to give you don’t
The love you say you want to make we can’t
Today’s just kinda been that kind of day, yeah, that kind of day

I’m out beyond the orbit of your angels
I’m out beyond the orbit of your smile
I’m out beyond the orbit of the angels
And it’s cold, cold, cold
