  1. Better Angels

From the recording Better Angels

What an intoxication 2008 was! Overwhelming, exhausting. Cary and I were glued to MSNBC, but have hardly watched TV since the inauguration. It's an amazing world - Barack Obama is the president of the United States! Still makes me cry ...

Lyrics

the better angels of our nature
have come back where they belong
from a star spangled sunset
to the ashes of dawn
but it's morning again

yes we can change our history
dance with our destiny
be the change we wish to see
in the world

the better angels of our nature
hold the best of you and me
we have dreamed of this moment
oh how long did we sleep
but it's morning again

yes we can change our history
dance with our destiny
be the change we wish to see
in the world

the better angels of our nature
they will not be with us long
so it's time to tell the story
yes the time to sing the song

yes we can change our history
dance with our destiny
be the change we wish to see
in the world
