Verse 1:
Alone before a dazzled crowd, lost within your verse
Like a gentle breeze your voice breathes magic to your words
Stark, lonely circle of light pulls each of us to you
As graceful fingers weave your tales on cold, hard wire and wood
With songs of whispers, broken hearts, and dancing willow leaves
Out pours your private self for all to see

Chorus:
Angel, Angel, you cast a six string spell
As you share with me your tears and dreams
With a voice that fell from heaven
You cast a six string spell

Verse 2:
I watch your gaze scan the crowd, for a moment our eyes meet
A sudden, hungry, rising warmth erupts inside of me
I feel you look right through me to the corners of my soul
As you reveal secret thoughts only you and I should know
I shy away, embarrassed, a voyeur with no right
To view these naked feelings sung tonight

Chorus:
Angel, Angel, you cast a six string spell
As you share with me your tears and dreams
With a voice that fell from heaven
You cast a six string spell

Bridge:
I long to hold those slender hands that dance on your guitar
And taste the lips that shape the words that burn deep in my heart
But I don't want to be that guy in one of your sad songs
Who draws you in a fevered love that soon turns out so wrong

Changed chorus:
Angel, Angel, you cast a six string spell
As you share with me your tears and dreams
With a voice that fell from heaven
You with your six string

Last chorus:
Angel, Angel, you cast a six string spell
As you share with me your tears and dreams
Your hopes, your doubts, your fantasies
All you want and wish you could be
With a voice that fell from heaven
You cast a six string spell
Sing it, oh, so well
Girl, I'm so under your spell
