From the Right Angle Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You have found me on the other side
Of a loser's winning streak
Where my thoughts all wander
Further than they should
Let me sing to you my solitude
Let me pay for your next drink
Let me defend these hearts
Which are so rarely understood

[Chorus]
From the right angle, in the right light
I might seem like I could take care of you
For a brief moment, for a few nights
Until the changing world has tumbled back into view


[Verse 2]
When nothing really matters
The world gets harder to resist
And saves you a place
At the end of an empty glass
I am here as a reminder
The quick glance off of a cliff

I guess that's why I though you would never ask

[Chorus]
From the right angle, in the right light
I might seem like I could take care of you
For a brief moment, for a few nights
Until the changing world has tumbled back into view

[Verse 3]
At the scene of all I've left unlearned
In the directions to your house
In every swing I took to crack the code
I need a cold beer from a dressing room
I need a string of dates back out
I think there are a few of us
That still belong out on the road

[Chorus]
From the right angle, in the right light
I might seem like I could take care of you
For a brief moment, for a few nights
Until the changing world has tumbled back into view


[Outro]
Until all you want is all I know how to do
I might seem like I could take care of you

How to Format Lyrics:
