Duran Duran - Like An Angel Lyrics






Things that you used to say
Now take on different meanings you realize
Can't be to careful about the lines
Come on you know you're not so young
You cannot hide behind disguise
Listen to your own desire

Eyes like an angel
So wise, don't lie
You never felt like this before
Fly like an angel
So high this time
You send your senses streaming free

Places you used to go
When you were young look different in the dark
Don't you worry it's O.K
And maybe I can help you find your way
Tonight I think you will agree
Summer reason's run away

Eyes like an angel
So wise, don't lie
You never felt like this before
Fly like an angel
So high this time
You've got your senses streaming free

Oh, I hear your heart beating even faster now than mine
Now you know just what I mean
So take your place among those twilight gleaming rivers that you read
Give me reasons to believe

Eyes like an angel
So wise don't lie
You never feel like this again
Fly like an angel
So high this time
You send my senses streaming free

Like an angel...

  1. R.... P....

    Simon le bon was highly influenced by david bowie. Just in his low tone and high tone. Sometimes he sounds like david bowie.

  2. B.... K....

    Sweet ✌️👍👌 🙏 t

  3. R.... S....

    My favorite track on Rio, and it wasn’t in the album...

    A crying shame, but “New Religion” is my second favorite, so it works out :)

  4. M.... L....

    Simon leBon, the voice of an Angel. The words melt off his lips like honey. Duran forever.

  5. S.... l....

    Time please get back to make me feel alive and kicking

  6. L.... L....

    High school memories.

  7. g.... ....

    I love the slightly unpolished feel, with the familiar 'Rio' style guitar work from Andy. Great little track!

    g.... ....

    I totally agree. The unpolished feel actually lends a lot to the song.

  8. S.... D....

    Simply a brilliant tune from a great band I've been loving since 1983 ! So many amazing songs from that band !

  9. B.... E....

    definitely an underrated song...this is such a great band ! Thanks DD !

  10. c.... w....

    Not that rare though is it. Probably pick a copy up in a charity shop.

    This is truly without a doubt the sound that captured my imagination the true sound of DURAN DURAN hypnotic melodic and very Charming sort of an eerie sound kind of like the category of night boat I never heard this song Until Now the way Simon is singing It's a true Duran Duran authentic original Style SIMON is singing this song the way he did on the sONg the shore ❤

  12. G.... A....

    Simplesmente amo DD👧🏼🇧🇷♩🎹🎸

  13. M.... A....

    Duran had the ability to change pace from song to sing, this is why they succeeded, they were flashy and cheesy, but musically very talented, this is my favorite song from that album, dreamy music and lyrics, and this song sounds nothing like any other song since and after, sure, you hear a familiar John Taylor baseline, and a jingly Andy guitar, Nick's synths are a bit absent though, but they manage to captivate because every song sounds different... It's the one enduring quality they had and why they stood head and shoulders above those other bands in the 80's. In my book The Smith's, and then Duran followed by The Cure... Who else?Who cares?

  14. S.... C....

    The b sides being as stand-alone good songs prove how talented Duran Duran are.

  15. i.... c....

    Missing you ...

  16. J.... Z....

    De los mejores..transportadores..

  17. R.... W....

    One word, Brilliant.. Xx

  18. T.... C....

    OMG, I can't believe I have never heard it before. ......Even tho I was only 10yrs when it came out. I didn't learn about them until I hit Junior High School, at 12yrs.........but once I heard them, I was OBSESSED! I am 47yrs now, & still luv them!

  19. R.... W....

    Fantastic song like always. xx

  20. T.... M....

    always been my #1 favorite duran song

  21. S.... ....

    Rare single? Huh? It's not rare at all, do you even know what rare means? It was a big hit in 81 and the market was flooded with it, you can pick up a good quality copy on ebay for as little as £3.

  22. T.... S....

    can't understand people losing classic vinyls, moved houses loads but kept the vinyl, this is a classic

  23. J.... M....

    Rare: Had this on Vinyl circa 1982. Tossed it somewhere along the journey of life. Kicking myself now.

    J.... M....

    Joann Martin

    J.... M....

    the A-side My own way was a speeded up version... Never heard and seen from again. The Album version had normal speed.

    J.... M....

    haha! I thought of it as the opposite. The album version, when it came out, sounded slow and (frankly) ... not up to it.

    Their live set of 1980 included My Own Way ... the fast way.

    J.... M....

    I've got mine!! :D

    J.... M....

    Its a rare song (1 of my fave) but its easy to find the My Own Way single, ive got like 5 or 6 just because of different artwork ahh :D

  24. D.... M....

    I still have this on vinyl, truly a classic.

    D.... M....

    I do too, this is one of my favorite songs of theirs. I pretty much only listen to Arena and before :)

  25. B.... C....

    Thank you for sharing. One of my favorite Duran Duran songs. Like a dumbass, I gave all my vinyl to the Goodwill. Please don't tell me how stupid that was, I know!

    B.... C....

    I did the same FRACKING thing two years ago. I sold all my vinyl in a move. Kicking myself DAILY.

    B.... C....

    me too.... sold ALL my smiths 12" singles, I had them all, mint condition. Think I got about 2 dollars per.

  26. L.... R....

    Love the groove on this....I think was their best B-side...hell they should have pushed this as hit single!

    L.... R....

    With some small tweaks I agree this could have been on Duran or Rio.

  27. J.... I....

    wow.... this is rare? makes me sick... I had it, ordered it from England... and don't know what happened to it... sad face

  28. S.... ....

    They did some great early B-sides. Have a listen to 'Late Bar', 'Faster Than Light' & 'Khanada' all brilliant songs also from 1981

    S.... ....

    You are so right! I love all of the above mentioned songs!

    S.... ....

    Favourites are Faster Than Light and Like An Angel here. Andy Taylor's a cool lead guitar. Nice sound

    S.... ....

    SettingSon79 continuing on to Secret October, Falling Angel, We Need You, and Stop Dead.

    S.... ....

    Thanks, I'll check them out.

    S.... ....

    I don´t really know what happened to their songs nowadays, this i a neat piece of work. Their latest album Paper Gods is horrible when it comes to songs and melodies. i´ve managed to listened it through twice... will not happen again.

  29. T.... S....

    My very special B-side is I Believe (All I Need To Know) but this one is pretty pleasant too.

  30. m.... c....

    amazing     beautiful! perfect..

  31. S.... N....

    A rare gem. Breathtakingly beautiful!

  32. M.... ....

    Simply too perfect...

  33. J.... F....

    so amazing after all theses yrs!

  34. S.... M....

    I had this single and loved it

  35. d.... ....

    I never heard this one either Paris, til I bought the newly re-release of RIO with all the mixes... this one should of been a hit single!  Of all the 25 years I've listened and collected duran duran.....this one slipped me by... they should of let Andy put more solo's and they would of had longer hit songs for Rock n roll fans! 

  36. A.... A....

    One of their best songs

  37. v.... ....

    Words cannot tell..

  38. T.... C....

    I'm surprised that this song wasn't more popular. It definitely carries a lot of passion. It captures them at their best. Andy's awesome guitar ballad, Nick's classic synth arrangements, and Simon's wonderful voice.

  39. R.... ....

    This is a cool B-side to listen to. I always liked this song.
