Guardian Angel
Masquerade Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I feel I'm falling apart 'cause I know I've lost my guardian angel
A fleeting glimpse of your heart losing by
From the start, no return
And things will never be the same

I feel I'm falling apart 'cause I know I've lost my guardian angel
A fleeting glimpse of your heart losing by
From the start, no return
And things will never be the same

Try to find the words that show I sympathize
Words of comfort. Words that never criticize
Though I know you simply laughing at me
I just can't stop and simply let it be

Where are all those feelin's of my yesterdays
Feelings now I have bring back those bad ole ways
Though I know you want to turn and blow
I just can't stop and simply let you go

I feel I'm falling apart 'cause I know I've lost my guardian angel
A fleeting glimpse of your heart losing by
From the start, no return
And things will never be the same

Let me see you smile once more that special way
Warm as summer on a chilly winter's day
Though I know you're simply laughing at me
I just can't stop and simply let it be

I feel I'm falling apart 'cause I know I've lost my guardian angel
A fleeting glimpse of your heart losing by
From the start, no return
And things will never be the same

I feel I'm falling apart ''cause I know I've lost my guardian angel
A fleeting glimpse of your heart losing by




From the start, no return
And things will never be the same

I feel I'm fallin' apart 'cos I know I've lost my guardian angel
A fleetin' glimpse of your heart losin' right from the start - no return
An' things will never be the same
I feel I'm fallin' apart 'cos I know I've lost my guardian angel. . .

Try to find the words that show I sympathise
Words of comfort, words that never criticise
though I know you're simply laughing at me
I just can't stop and simply let it be...

Where are all those feelings of my yesterdays
Feelings now I have bring back those bad old ways.
Though I know you wanna turn and blow
I just can't stop and simply let you go.

I feel I'm falling apart 'cause I know I've lost my
guardian angel
A fleeting glimpse of your heart losing right from the
start - no return
And' things will never be the same.

Let me see you smile once more that special way
warm as summer on a chilly winter's day
Though I know you're simply laughing at me
I just can't stop and simply let it be...🎵

Das war eine Zeit mit guter Musik.Ich vermisse diese Zeit ❤😢

@b.gerdien

Ruhe in Frieden, lieber Drafi Deutscher, das Lied ist auch 2024 wunderschön und ich glaube, du wurdest zeitlebens verkannt. Das Musikbusiness ist ein Haifischbecken.

@birgits.7

Er war ein genialer Musiker, viele viele tolle Projekte - aber Genie und Sucht liegen oft beeinander.

2023: last day of the year.
1984: first time I listened to this masterpiece.
