Angels unaware

He said, "My name is Gabrielle Thomas
I blew in from out of town
My work keeps me out on the road
But it's the best job that I've found
I don't mind the silence
Or the Super 8 Motel
And I've never met a person yet
Without a tale to tell"

He said, ?I know you, I've heard you say
?Jen, true love has no pride'
You gave Angela and Joe a lift
That night they didn't have a ride
Across the room Elaine has drawn your face a hundred times
I don't believe that blood alone
Is the only tie that binds?

Sit right here and rest your bones
No one's ever so alone
You can take the world down off your shoulders
I don't know why or how
All I know is here and now
You can take the world down off your shoulders
He said, ?I'm moved to tenderness
By what we cannot bare
Humbled by the things what we can and do
And learn to share
It seems I traveled years and years
And still I'm sitting here
Nothing ever seems to change
Just the dates and just names?

Sit right here and rest your bones
No one's ever so alone
You can take the world down off your shoulders
I don't know why or how
All I know is here and now
You can take the world down off your shoulders

He said thank you for the coffee
And for the extra cream
You seem to know instinctively
That things are never what they seem.
You never know what might blow
Through the door like silent prayer
And how many of us entertain
Angels unaware

Sit right here and rest your bones
No one's ever so alone
You can take the world down off your shoulders
I don't know why or how
All I know is here and now
You can take the world down off your shoulders
