lyrics

V1
Though you've heard it all before
I'll drop the top down to the floor
And make the rake seem even more
Like vertigo in indigo

Call for penance call for pain
Make the jeers sound quiet again
Face the pace of each refrain
As if you know it's time to go

CHORUS
Eleanor I wished you'd called this morning
Every choice made in your voice
Is like heaven is calling

Eleanor I wished you'd called this morning
Every time the toll bell chimes
I hear the angels falling
Eleanor, (Eleanor), Eleanor, (Eleanor)

V2
I wish you'd heard the moaning choir
Wrapped in muslin for their sores
Praying for the suffering poor
To rise and sing of newborn kings

Call for penance call for pain
Make the jeers sound quiet again
Face the pace of each refrain
As if you know it's time to go

BRIDGE
In the darkest rain
The clouds will break
The sun will shine
The new found joy
Will dull the pain
That haunts you

CHORUS
Eleanor I wished you'd called this morning
Every choice made in your voice
Is like heaven is calling

Eleanor I wished you'd called this morning
Every time the toll bell chimes
I hear the angels falling
Eleanor, (Eleanor), Eleanor, (Eleanor)
