I Was Made To Love You Lyrics

In the sky I see angels flying all over town
They've got names in their
Pockets of lovers lost and found
If I send you my angel, would you send
Yours to me?
If our angels collide in the sky, you'll say it was meant to
Be

And days blank like they bleached them
And nights outline air like
Static on the phone
And you say that you feel them
But the words you
Picked so carefully keep coming out all wrong
So I'll write them in light
And I'll carve them in stone
I was made for loving you
I was put on
This sweet earth too
I was made to love you

In the air I hear gunfire, going off in the hills. Clocks are ticking
The battle is nearing, I'm fending them off with these pills
If you're
Stuck in the front line, would you charm your way out?
You might like the
Idea of the kill, but you don't know what dying's about

And days blank like they bleached them
And nights outline air like
Static on the phone
And you say that you feel them
But the words you
Picked so carefully keep coming out all wrong
So I'll write them in light
And I'll carve them in stone
I was made for loving you
I was put on
This sweet earth too
I was made to love you

In the sky I see angels flying all over town
They've got drugs in their
Pockets, to keep us all on the ground
I won't send you my angelangels
Only deceive
Spit the pills out feed fuel to your fear
And fly away
With me

And days blank like they bleached them
And nights outline air like
Static on the phone
And you say that you feel them
But the words you
Picked so carefully keep coming out all wrong
So I'll write them in light
And I'll carve them in stone
I was made for loving you
I was put on
This sweet earth too
I was made to love you

Polly Paulusma is a critically acclaimed, English singer-songwriter. In recent years, Paulusma has toured with the likes of Bob Dylan, Coldplay, Gary Jules, Jamie Cullum, Joseph Arthur, and Marianne Faithfull.

Throughout her 20s, Paulusma flirted with a number of occupations, from scholar (she embarked on a PhD after graduation from Cambridge University) to novelist (she was talented enough to bag a literary agent). But raised on a diet of Joni Mitchell and Carole King, music was always Paulusma’s first love. She wrote her first song aged ten, but it took 18 years of denial before she finally listened to her heart and recorded her debut album.

“Music had always been part of my life,” she says. “I’d been in bands, writing songs all along, but I’d just been doing it for the hell of it. It never crossed my mind to try and do it properly.”

It wasn’t until she recorded backing vocals for friends Ben & Jason’s last album that the penny finally dropped. “I had one of these earth shattering moments when I suddenly realised that everything I was doing was wrong and that I should be doing this instead,” she says. “It was like I got hit with an electric current – maybe I did – it was a pretty lo-fi studio so there was always that possibility! I just started crying. I thought, oh buggery fuck, here we go again.” Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
