歌詞

When I touched an angel’s hand

And whispered wishes in the wind

He said, “Stay here, just wait.”

When I crossed the rainbow’s span

I saw the canals of Strasbourg again

You opened wide the door

To the most beautiful cathedral I’d seen before

Colors danced like stained glass light

Reflecting deep in your eyes so bright

When I touched an angel’s hand

And whispered wishes in the wind

He said, “Stay here, just wait.”

When I crossed the rainbow’s span

I saw the canals of Strasbourg again

Where ducks beg crumbs of bread

And tourists toast with wine instead

The barge rocked gently ‘round a bend

Bikes slowed down, and you just grinned

When I touched an angel’s hand

And whispered wishes in the wind

He said, “Stay here, just wait.”

When I crossed the rainbow’s span

I saw the canals of Strasbourg again

I never thought it’d end this way—

A speeding train took you away

Goodbyes drifted on the stream

Like a tear on the river’s gleam

When I touched an angel’s hand

And whispered wishes in the wind

He said, “Stay here, just wait.”

But you, you’ve gone away

Down the canals of Strasbourg
