Songs That Changed the World--The Most Important Songs of the Rock Era: "Calling All Angels" by Train

Train appealed to our better side in this classic song, pledging not to give up and fight for what is right.  It is a timeless message and never more important than right now.



"Calling All Angels"
by Train


Words and Music by Charlie Colin, Pat Monahan, Scott Underwood and James W. Stafford


I need a sign to let me know you're here
All of these lines are being crossed over the atmosphere
I need to know that things are gonna look up
'Cause I feel us drowning in a sea spilled from a cup

When there is no place safe and no safe place to put my head
When you can feel the world shake from the words that are said

[Chorus:]
And I'm calling all angels
I'm calling all you angels

I won't give up if you don't give up [Repeat x4]

I need a sign to let me know you're here
'Cause my TV set just keeps it all from being clear
I want a reason for the way things have to be
I need a hand to help build up some kind of hope inside of me

[Chorus]

When children have to play inside so they don't disappear
While private eyes solve marriage lies cause we don't talk for years
And football teams are kissing Queens
and losing sight of having dreams
In a world that what we want is only what we want until it's ours

[Chorus x2]

Calling all you angels [Repeat till fade]
