I am a sucker for a great hook. I am always singing this song in the shower...settle down ladies. This dude writes a great song lyrically but with that he has a great sense of Americana in his voice. I hope you likey.




Artist: Martin Sexton
Song: Wild Angels

Even when the desert sands roll with thunder
Even when I know it's all for gasoline
Even when the hole in my head lets me wonder it
I know I sing because I must
Even when the truth waters down way too quickly
Even when the storm blows down in New Orleans
I will still be dreamin' when I know why this happens
But I know I love you and I trust
We are born with this music in our hearts
We tend forget a little each day right from the start
In a dream I rolled on back the clock and found another way
To remember the words

That we are wild angels
Believing in our childhood dreams
We're just trying to find our way back to
The source of the stream
We are wild and free
Even like the hills these songs they last forever
Even though the singer will be forgotten in good time
Even that a song can unify or move mountains
This I cry we sing because we must

We all love the sound of music in our head
And feel the joy and pain cuz we ain't dead
We have the power and the duty and the means to change the world
And to remember the words

Cuz we are wild angels
Sent down from our childhood dreams to change the world
And to remember the words
Cuz we are wild angels
Send down from our childhood dreams
And we're just trying to get ourselves back to the source of the stream
We are wild and we are free
It's where we want to be

Come and join us on the journey down the winding road
Doesn't matter what you fear cuz we are bold
We got the light inside us of the universe
Gonna let it flow like a raging river
