ABBA - Like An Angel Passing Through My Room [ Chords ]

Chords

Chords:  C    F   Gm

Long    awaited   darkness   falls,    casting   shadows   on  the  walls
In   the   twilight   hour   I   am   alone,   sitting   near   the  fireplace
Dying   embers   warm   my    face.    In   this   peaceful   solitude,   all
The    outside   world   subdued.   And   it   all   comes   back   to   me
Tonight,   in   the   gloom.   Like   an   angel   passing   through   my   room.

Half awake and half in dreams
     Seeing long forgotten scenes
     So the present runs into the past
     Now and then become entwined
     Playing games within my mind
     Like the embers as they die
     Love was one prolonged goodbye
     And it all comes back to me tonight
     In the gloom
     Like an angel passing through my room

 I      close      my      eyes    And     my    twilight    images   go   by
 all          too            soon
Like      an     angel    passing    through     my      room.

(ABBA)

Like an Angle Passing Through My Room

This song has become very important to me. I read this song as some-one who has come to the end of their lives and while they are alone between visitors are remembering their lives. I 'Close my eyes' and the other line 'All to soon ' is one of the sadest songs I have ever come accross. Think of some-one dying and the music finishes and then the ticking of the clock becomes still.

I really enjoy this playing in my solitude.. away from this whirling world and routine.. remembering the past cherished moments..
